First off, Welcome to the Forum....:toocool:

Second, I'm assuming your final product is the the orange colored bike. I think it looks decent but I don't know how I feel about the charcoal part or the word YAMAHA on the mid fairing. I think those issues aside it might look badass.

Where you located? Might have you paint some track fairings for me.

EDIT: Is the bike lowered?

thanks man.. the charcoal is the only part i didnt paint, i still have to do those pieces,the yamaha on the bottom i removed. i had to put somthing on the side cause it looked too plain for me and that was all i could think of. yes it is lowered pretty far down. oh yeah im located in san antonio tx.

I really like the paint job man, but those lowering links have got to go!

You're not a professional racer. If you like the lowered look and feel then keep them on. This forum is full of people who like to drag knee at their local intersections.

like the orange and white, paint the lowers orange/white also.
if u aint too short, get it back to stock height, u'll feel a huge difference in turns, "local intersections" or track.
if drag racing, then stretch it out.
