Once that tank's done it'll be tits. Looks tits now, but the tank will complete the look.

honestly i like the tank the way it is, the lines flow well with the bike and its hard to tell in pics but the paint doesnt look that far off from the new plastics

Yea,I know,I've been looking at that too... The blue is darker and the white on the tank is a different white than the new stuff so.... IDK. Note I edited the last post and added the "now" pic next to the ps one so you can see them side by side.

Yeah I agree it looks good the way it is. The way you PSed it looks like there will be too much white maybe...?

Yea I love white! It's by far my favorite color but that is a lot of it. Now I do have carbon fiber "stomp grips" coming that will break it up on the side and I'm gonna have the black Jordan symbol and blue Suzuki "S"s on each side. Hmmm... it's hard to say. Oh here's some "evolution" pics. Oh and the pads.

I've always been a fan of the Zuk white rims. Look way better than black...but suck donkey balls to keep clean.


Nice job man...sucker looks real good.

FUCK....the front nose piece is over $300! At a guess I'd say about $1500-2000 would get you a complete kit.
