    I'll say it again, best looking 6th gen ever.
    That scheme looks better on the 6G than the RCV.

    He would just like to thank his wife, his mother, his producer, his therapist and the small cocker spaniel next door. Without them this award would never have happened.

    Cheers guys,

    Thanks for all the appreciation.

    The exhausts are GPR Deeptone's, they do a Nero (black) version. I fitted them and then looked at the pipe that connects to them from the CAT and thought, that doesn't look right with a stainless steel pipe going into matt black tail pipes. So I got some high temperature matt spray paint and did the pipe leading into them. I then took some pics and played around with the foot rest and gear level colours and then had to spray everything in the same matt black.

    I had to be honest and say that the whole colour scheme was inspired by the Honda RCV 213. If I had 160,000 GBP then I would have gone with it, but will have to wait until my next pay cheque ha ha.

    friend had a GPR on his R6 track bike, man that pipe was loud! I bet the VFR sounds good with them. Post up an audio recording if you can.

    Malaysia.... No way. I got it done in China ha ha.

    The paint job looks amazing, but as usual they don't use the right kind of 2 pack, so its soft as hell and falls off if you look at it. As long as you are very careful it looks the part and should last.

    I kept my original fairings, so bought a new set. Again from China. I have to say that the fairings are awesome and as good if not better than the original Honda fairings. Everything lined up first time and the fit is incredible. I was in shock at how good the fairings are as I've had Chinese fairings before on my ZX10-R and it was a joke. I lived 16 years in Mainland Southern China before Malaysia, so am starting to get know who to trust and not when it comes to bike bits.

    Yep, I'll do a recording of the pipes. There not as loud as I'd like as I still have the CAT in place, but it a definite improvement over stock and it does sound good.

    Nothing, nada, zip, zilch. And you want to know why? Because my local Honda dealer got two rotor bolts in, not twelve. I asked them why and they said they would check the shipment tracking and call me back, which they did, then very hesitantly and very uncertainly said they don't know why.

    I'll tell you why. 99% chance they ordered two instead of twelve. Now, the very soonest I can get my bolts is Tuesday, but I'll bet you real money it will be Wednesday or Thursday, because they are going to place the rest of the order Tuesday morning. Dumbshits. I could have had my bike back together, but no. Now I have to wait until sometime next week. I chose the dealer because they usually get stuff overnight, not over week... And, I paid in advance!!!!

    I ordered a radiator cap, waited two weeks for it. They said they'd call but didn't. I dropped in to see what the deal was with the delay. "We ordered the cap for the coolant reservoir, had to then order the correct part, it just arrived today". Ffff.... LOL Ya have to laugh it off sometimes.
