Well i know it's not the finished item just yet but it's close enough !! Just got back and fitted my new wheels had progressive springs fitted and had the fueling sorted so it's running as good as it's ever done for a long long while so i am now a happy bunny once more !!!
The list so far :
Evo Airbox
RSVR Swinging arm
Ohlins Shock
Progressive springs for the forks
54mm throttle bodies
Renegede cans and chip
PC3 usb
OZ Wheels ( in RED )
Headlight mod for full beam
Lower Fairing fitted
Braided brake lines
Front forks dropped Rear up full height
I'm sure there's more but can't remember ......anyway the good women hasn't a clue to the price of all this so all in all a good job well done !!!
Am off to get it all dyno'd hopefully in the next week or so so that should be ( fingers crossed ) the bike running as good as it can........god i bloody hope so

I know it needs a clean and i know the stickers cover some sins !!

But it's almost there..........ALMOST !!!

(insert obligatory slow colour comment here)
with all that speed, suggest a set of the long stem rs125 mirrors.... just to watch out for team filth

Indeed - plus making them more expensive than we can afford.
Much better the buy the excellent basic machine and buy the goodies as we can afford them .... and get the bits second hand at that.
Nice job Mr Mafia

Glad to hear that it's passing the forum gods test !! After posting photos here yesterday i went out for one more last blast before putting it to bed last night and ended up pulling the gear change out the peddle ......stripped the thread as i felt it getting,loose but was in a " it'll be alright " ride mode !!!

Had to ride back stuck in fourth gear which was fun when i got to the round abouts...Just when you think you have it running well up pops another problem !!!
So it's back to eBay for me to get a new gear change ...............
Still thinking it will look better in red / white / green but am STILL looking into that , may have to change the indicators then !!!

Then we will have the fastest colour ........

Looks good
Think you missed off the side stand and rear indicators off the list, they don't look like originals. Also Belly pan, so obvious I nearly missed it, grills, tail tidy.
Any more?

See i knew there were other things well done for pointing them out ........had lower fairing down though .........The more i look at it the more i'm liking the wheel colour with the black and bronze ( soon to be second fastest colour ) Mates fixing the gear change for me so should be back on the road by the end of the day fingers crossed..
May have to sort out some levers next as well to finish of the front end ........

It's like a mini spot the changes game now.
gold reservoir caps, double bubble screen and a secret dangly wire in the seat hump, probabaly there to activate the release of a full size number plate as an air brake assist?
