Default My ZX10R - Up to date now with rim tape added.

Well here is the finished article.

I'll show the evolution since i got it.





With scorpion can fitted





With rim tape




And trying to show off the pearl you can't see in normal pics...





I fitted the tape before i came to Congo last week. I really like it! Any comments good or bad?

I did 270 ish miles before i came here and not home for another 4 weeks Even then i get home thu and leave fri for croft. I'm gagging to use it!

Still can't believe i bought a Kawasaki...

oh and maybe do summat with rear hugger. plastic looks silly as it's "plain" plastic. Painted gloss might be nice or change it.

Don't worry, as said i need to see what i can do there. Salesman actually said he'd remove it altogether and that'd make the bike look miles better. In fact i have seen one with it off and it's great. However i'm not going to let all the shit of the day get into the shock by having nothing.

Decisions decisions.

you can get a neoprene sleeve that velcros over the shock, but i prefer a good hugger (some are tacky as fuck)

I actually like the white tape on the rims (Althou its the Mag's colour's.)

How about photochopping the hugger white?

Very cool Steve. They're getting more like something you'd see in 'The Terminator' every day.
