How do you like the project bike?

Post by Terzikat » Sat Oct 15, 2011 9:12 pm

Finally getting close to finishing project TRX. Started in 2007! Everythings built now. Just needs a final strip and paint. Hoping to get her on the road next year.

that R6 tail end is becoming quite a popular conversion - probablies because it works so well for bike.

It looks good in white, and it'd look even awesomer with white wheels :D

Dunno about the paint scheme. I really liked Honks Marlborough design but would feel too much of a copy cat if I went that route. maybe a red/white speedblock would look good with black frame, swingarm and wheels?

red bodywork works well with a silver frame.
perhaps polished rims with a subtle gold centre a la '50s ferrari?
cheers

White wheels and white bodywork for that 'just delivered race bike' look-

Mid 90s red and white, with yellow number boards could be the way to go
