How Do You Like Your Carbon?

Gloss. Don't dislike matt. Just prefer gloss. Saw a Pagani Huayra at a show and the gloss carbon fibre detail was mesmerising.

 

Or call it satin and no one knows if it's supposed to be shiny or matt

 

This was my gloss-tastic steed before the paint shop. A bit too carbon fibre-ery.... Definitely prefer it now....

 

Ye fuggin wha??

 

This....

 

I'd buy the original bike and add carbon if I decided to, always retaining the original parts.

 

I quite like those old black 900's. Is it the Darmah? I remember walking home from school on a hot summers day when I was in 5th form. My mate, who was the year above me and had just left school, got a YTS in the local bike shop. He pulled up with a spare lid up his forearm and said 'jump on' Fuck me, that was an impressive blast. Not sure how we survived, but we did. He basically nicked it for 24 hours, he was only 16

 

Depends on the bike. My Tuono matt. My s1000rr gloss.

Not a great fan and certainly don't replace stuff just for the sake of bling factor, but out of choice, matt. The shiny stuff looks like cheap imitation plastic

 

The shiny stuff looks like carbon fibre, but shiny. In other news, eye tests are available in most high streets.

 

Monday morning on the Ducati forum, love it.

 

Fixed that for you

 

Doesn’t flow off the tongue though,
and please, point me to the other forums that are as lovable
