  1. i hate anoraks....they are frustrated auditors or accountants, or just general know it all wankers, not bikers.
  2. ill happily take the sheeps cash............ i used to really love the black n silver scheme too, but blue white is traditional gsxr colours, the only issues i have with doing the blue white is that my seats are black, not blue. But in the real world im sure no one will be bothered if the seats are black, will they? the only problem will probably be getting me to sell it once its done
  3. thanks for the feedback. Think ill go standard colours, blue and white being most popular. My favourite standard scheme is undoubtedly the 1100L blue white, but this is just a little seven fifty, so the 3 blues, with proper decals. if i was keeping it id use pearls and metallics but standard is the winner. Still need to finish stripping the tank....took them to the powder coater who said he could blast them, but he didnt have the right media, apparently, so he gave them back....bah....and the aqua blast man wants too much money (50 a tank, pfffttt, hes obviously never heard of my legendary tightness, ive got 5 to do)
  4. quick question. ive a slingshot 750L and its almost ready for paint... now im not keeping this, im gonna flip it, so am thinking ill get a better price if i put it back to standard paint? or would i? so choices are as follows, im leaning toward standard colours, because if i do something custom i'll want to keep it, and ive got allready got 3 1100s.. so you lot can decide, remember, most return ££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££ blues/white std black silver std. pepsi skoal minolta HB other suggestion whats the most desirable combination? cheers

    Is this a K

    ahh yes,you're right, i stand corrected, its definitely an 89, the fairing colour scheme also gives it away. its similar to the 88 but top fairing has more white in the 88, sorry.
  6. try rs bike paints, they may know what you are looking for.

  8. think the main reason they were so popular was because dynos were so scarce in the early nineties.
  9. i wouldnt be buying anything from martek/ MK engineering etc after reading some of the horror stories on the net about them.
  10. or another £1000+ minimum, to put said cams and big bore kit into efe yes? and its still 3 stone heavier.....
  11. Gsxr in kat, all day long, saves 3 stone and an additional 20 bhp as standard.
  12. all right? so fitting a WP, WR,WS tank to a L model gsxr i know it can be done, but whats the pitfalls? will oil boil seat fit without mods? tap hit carbs? or any other issues with fitting them? cheers.
  13. definitely put the marchesinis in, they are period correct. great find, its like a time capsule
