New paint job...

[falcomunky]

Well, it is if ya can spot it!
How she looked when I first got her last October;

A mod or two later;

And the new paint job;


See it?
Makes the arse-end look a lot more streamlined imo and adds a touch more sex to the bike in general!
Dead simple to do; I did it with the tail still on the bike, (yes I masked everything off properly)!

Oooeer mum, its a funny green colour.


Nice one FM

Front Air inlets? V Nice.

[Fausto]

I think I see it - it's like subtle shading to enhance the lines type stuff?

Looks good.

One thing though....... are those the safety warning stickers still on the screen?

[Falco9]

Too subtle for me I'm afraid, it looks exactly the same, very nice but I can't spot any change (sorry!)

Like the rear lens though, On my last Falco I sprayed up the rear light cluster surround in matching silver which looked good and was also very subtle (well imho it was)

Is it the tail light/grab rail surround thats been painted? Looks more charcoal ish now. And the vents.

I had my tail light surround colour matched last year (same as F9's/Gio's) and with the clear lense it looks well smart. Personally I think the original grey colour fades too easily and starts to look dated.

I'm with F9 I'm afraid. Go on do tell

[paddyz1]

Aprilia blended in and a new shorter hugger to match the swingarm

[D-Rider]

The red car's been towed away and the fence has been replaced by a hedge ???

[paddyz1]

Maybe it is the ohlins shock

[D-Rider]

Maybe it is the ohlins shock

Yeah - I'd wondered about that but wasn't sure - but now you've pointed it out, I can see the reservoir in the last picture but it's not there in the others. Good spot!

Number plate mounting - different in each of the 3 pictures!

Looks like the side stands been changed as well, the bike leans further over IMO

[falcomunky]

Right.
The ram-air inlets are a little overkill imo.
The stickers on the screen; One is a safety sticker, the other is a 'PollTax' sticker with a pic of a gatso on it from the previous owner. Never bin arsed to take em off tbh...
The tail light surround is still the standard charcoal; It matches the lense perfectly, (though I had considered silver).
Oh, and its, unfortunately, only the yellow-spring RSV Sachs btw...
Yes its a Gixer sidestand and yes its now got an RSV hugger etc., but the recent 'paint-job' change is....





















Ta-Da!!!
(Its the matt-black 'flash' I sprayed on between the indicator and the Tax disc btw!)
"Makes the arse-end look a lot more streamlined" should have been a bit of a clue...
Recheck my first post and you'll, (hopefully), see!
I think Fausto was closest. You win, erm, ah, a day off work! (Just tell em Gio okayed it )
BTW, anyone from ere up round Durham City last Saturday afternoon?
I followed a black Falco, (01/02 plate; So small I couldnt be sure and black carbon cans as well as gold wheels, oh and the pilot had a pony tail I think!), for a few miles before it headed off towards the motorway.
I was out going steady away getting my new front tyre scrubbed in which, Ive just realised, scientifically proves summink; Silver is the faster colour coz I kept up no probs!

Te-Hee...

[Falco9]

You smooth talking (Geordie / Macam/ Smoggie / Monkey ****** lets not go there)

Who ever said the art of subltety is dead?, far too smooth for me M8, I'd never have noticed it, but your right, it does smooth it out nicely, just goes to show the best mods are always the subtle ones (and those wheel trims were RED i tell ya NOT pink! )

[Fausto]

Ah Ha - thought so. It looks good Mate.

Now you need to find a better tax disc holder/position imho
