  17. Rizoma grips!!! so it's not a R replica then, more a harley pastiche. :wink:
     
  18. Grips are just grips, they can be changed at anytime & I like the look of them!
     
  19. You've obviously spent a lot to make this bike personal to you.

    However, I'm a bit of a traditionalist and I can't see enough 'exotic' engine components/tuning/performance to imply that it's an 'R'.

    At the moment, it's just a decorated 848. Some of it I really like :upyeah:. And some of it I find a little tasteless (mainly the gold). But as you say, each to their own.

  20. I understand that some people will like it & some won't...but that's what is going to make mine different from all the other factory 848's out there!
