hey guys! long time no see...been busy with work and riding...however...

about 2 months ago, my bike was smashed while it sat undercover in my parking lot, while I was out. When I got home, it was trashed, laying on its side....worst part, the person just took off, didnt even stop...


So I decided this was the perfect time to get it customed......and here it is..

Ill get some better pictures myself, once its assembled and clearcoated. Should have it by end of next week...


Here is a pic of it without the custom paint...
Just remember, I have a Yosh slip on, carbon fiber, and the gel seat that suzuki offers..



Here is the custom airbrushing on the tank and on the side fairings....

Oh im sorry guys, I'm not the one that did the airbrushing. I am awful at art. I had a professional graphics company, which is conviently located across the street from my body shop do the work.

But thanks for all the compliments, I will make sure I pass it on him. He has done other cycles, much more complex than mine. I'll try to get tthe guy who did to email a few pictures so you can see his other work. There have been people drive across the state to have him do othe airbrushing..

Yeah, get your suspension sorted out and some new tires. Or else your nice airbrush job wil be a mess of asphalt scrapings and dirt and grass.

LOL!
whats wrong with my suspension?

the way i look at it is:
if my airbrushing work gets messed up dew to a fall or whatever. no big deal. only thing it cost me was materials and time. i could do it again. since i'll have the equipment on hand.

AH HA young grasshopper. Remember, this is the order to smartly move forward on your machine:

1. Servicability of all mechanical parts - replace any worn or defective parts (i.e. you shouldn't even be riding this until this is done)
2. Tires (same here. Don't ride until you have some new rubber on there)
3. Correct suspension setup with quality components
4. Engine performance enhancements
5. Looks (LAST)
