    heres a couple of pics

    I know this isnt to most peoples tastes but i like it. Its not the as tidy as it could be and i need to get some black foam for the seat and those rear shocks have to go and be replaced by some black ones.

    Other than that i like it its not stupid loud and has a bit of character


    All in all pretty pleased and total cost including insurance and MOT is £425 so cheap and cheerfull means the srad can be used as god intended and this can be bashed about london[​IMG][​IMG]

    I like the shape of the rear fender...simple, certainly sporty, did you make it yourself?

    Also, you passed MOT with no mirrors? :)

    actually those shocks look like aftermarket performance ones... as the stock shocks weren't that great after 6k miles.. looks like a nice, cheap build

    Been thinking the same thing might turn them 90 degrees so the run alongside the headlight so not so visible from the front?
