Title: This years ride!!!
Post by: Clive on February 05, 2012, 07:00:57 PM
Finally got this back in one piece after a fresh coat of art!!!!! :D

One of the bikes I always wanted (sort of)

My first big bike was a slab side Gixxer 750, but always wanted a 600 SRAD!

Found this recently, not quite standard!!! 600 frame, 750 injection engine, 750 swing arm and front end! As I took it apart for paint, every panel revealed something else that'll scare me!!! :D
