Default Finally!!!!

I have been without a sportbike for way too long and I finally gave up on the chopper and traded it for this. It was a basket case when I got it but not anymore. 2005 GSXR 1000, nothing special other than the paint which is a silver and chevy cobalt orange. I also have the kick ass frame sliders from hell LOL. Basically half a cage....

Dont know for sure how long im keeping the paint but for now its ok....

Thank you! I just like black too much. I was thinking of getting all the carbon fiber pieces they make for it body wise and then paining the rest of the plastics flat black.... But my daughter loves this color along with everyone else LOL!

I really like that paint job too. It reminds me of that burnt orange kawi came out with a couple of yrs ago. I would like to see how it looks with the silver replaced with carbon.

The thing came to me in many pieces. The guy I got it from had taken it completely apart to sell it for parts and keep the front end and rear wheel for his bobber project so I talked him out of doing that with a little persuasion of trading my almost done chopper for it all. So I had to completely reassemble the bike pretty much from the ground up. I still think that it will have to go into the shop as there is a dead spot around 80 when you give it gas it just sits there when it should be taking off like a bat outta hell???? Im thinkin power commander and tuning and ill be straight....

You know that is exactly what I was thinking last night when I was lookin at it in the garage. And it is really close to that color.

i heard with the bells that you have to have someone else buy and INSTALL them on your bike for you...you can never touch the bell yourself...plus that it needs to be on the lowest spot of ur bike...just my 2cents lol

as for the color of the bike im diggin it...i think if you change anything the silver with carbon would look sick...

Id definitely go with the orange and carbon mix, that would be sharp. Plus a little more macho. But i do agree that I would save the money and wait till you drop it to get a new paint job. Glad to hear you're back on a sport.
