That looks lovely, Baz! Liking the blue screen, really sets off against the other touches of blue in the scheme, really looks good. The wheels look good in white, too.

If you glimpse at the pictures quite quickly, the bike looks like it's been pimped by the local police!

Loving those wheels Baz, freaking awesome! I'm thinking of gettting mine done white now.

well after the malarky with the high beam not working which i'm pretty sure was down to the headlight relay, the bike decided it didn;t wanna fire up again, spent days whipping the plugs out, cleaning em and trying to start the bugger but it weren't havin any of it, so £20.99 delivered for a set of new ngk plugs, put them in tonight and it fired up straight away.Put the bike back together and checked all lights/brakes etc and i'm taking it for an MOT tommorrow, can't wait to get back out on a zxr400 after how many years???
