I like the wheels and there's an interesting modified exhaust system too.
Just look at the billet hoop though.. Very expensive!!

Nice find..
Someone has spent a bucketload of cash on this bike - converting it to a 900 and then adding all the trick bits. Fairly sure the exhaust is titanium, there's also the rear sets, the brake master cylinder, all the brake/clutch/engine lines have been replaced with new braided ones, wavy rotors, tail chop - it's got all the mods done that I'd want and then some!

For it to be totally perfect for me, it really boils down to:
- Headlight
- Bar end mirrors
- Paint job (I'll get the CF bit's re-lacquered at the same time so its all shiny shiny)

This bike was a steal - had been up on ebay for 2800, then it was down to 2500, then 2200, then suddenly 1800! At that point I rented a van and drove down to Cheltenham last Saturday to pick her up - 12 hours of driving (back in Glasgow that night), 100% worth it!
