Yes it is hard to keep clean and i was not sure about the colour scheme when choosing colours, but i love it!
I think when the weather is good i will take it to nooj for ventreshielding?
I have another project in mind and when finished should look nice too.
Watch this space
OK ..... but don't take a spray gun or hacksaw anywhere near the Oasis!
You have been warned !
Mmmm there's a thought
Never!
I posted and said the white bike was finished but in time i am thinking of a few other trick bits.
I have an mpl slave cylinder to fit and in time i think i will change the disks for some after market ones.
I can't think of anything else but to then ride and enjoy the bike

I assume this is the silver bike after a re-work?
It looks really good Jay, you made a excellent job.

Looks very pretty. Maybe too pretty for 'exploring' the Leicestershire country side.....
Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can enjoy today

Very nice, I think I'd just park in the lounge
I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"

That bike is more than worthy of the front cover (and maybe a centrefold spread). If Aprilia had put that pic in their advertising campaign everone would be riding one.

Have to say you've made my mind up for colours now.......I think the bike's looking bloody good in white , makes you wonder why they never did it in the first place..
Going to be a bugger to clean that's for sure but with all the water we've got down here in sunny Cornwall that won't be a problem......
Great job and well done ...
