At least you've posted something worth a read unlike most of the tosh posted on here.. And anyway El feel free to post a link to the pics of your bike so we can rip shite out of it for you and see how you feel... Some used to say if you have nothing good to say STFU and say nothing
Im sure El T didnt mean to cause any offence to anybody. I for one am enjoying seeing how the bike is evolving
ps oh the irony of such a rant :smile: pps you've ordered the same bike that I have albeit it's the new dull grey colour :smile:
No 848 for me El think you have your wires crossed, nothing personal hey... Your ok for some givin but not for some takin...lol My bikes an RS and a track bike only my old mucker! Anyway I like the OP's 848 nice bike!
I apologise - too many Andy's on here :wink: Seriously though, I apologise. We all have our opinions though. :smile:
I just don't think that repeatedly telling someone that you don't like their bike is sharing your opinion anymore, it's gone past that. Give the guy a freakin' break! Just my opinion :biggrin:

Tasty! I wish I had that this season! Mine's only got 120 at the wheel though :frown: And I'm sure weighs a damn sight more than that!
what, no gold handlebar grips or christmas tree lights............i mean what were they thinking offset yokes and a bespoke loom...
No Andy that will come later just for you :wink: but you are such a hardcore racer now aren't you? I am sorry I didn't know that members have to put up pics of dull boring factory looking bikes where everyone looks exactly the same on a forum...so that been said go put on a race sticker on yours and call it a day
Lookin forward to seeing it all put together, wee bit too much gold for me but really like the paint job and if we all liked the same thing it would be fekin dull. Been resisting the urge to go moddin myself. Only done the asv, gilles and front and back carbon huggers but the lure of zard is gettin stronger!!!
I know what you mean, you build a bike how YOU like it, mod away my friend...I like looking at personalized bikes!
Loving some of the NCR stuff. Not really a metal head it that stuff does make me drool just a little...altho my Evo post ECU tune is showing 139hp
Me too but NCR stuff is super expensive & that's a total track bike, I like riding mine on the street!
