2K on paint???? um I think I would pay 2K to have that removed ... and thats coming from the girl with little taste!
Strangest looking Iguana I have ever seen!

Someone obviously knows how to apply paint, but dear me, I can't quite get my head around the Jurassic park scheme.

I'd expect a paintjob like that on a streetfightered GSXR.
It's both tacky and poorly done, 'Nearly 2k on a special paint job', special indeed as it devalues his bike by about that much I reckon.

If someone had a standard tank to replace the one thats presently there it wouldnt be a bad bike but i must say the paint job is a shocker' there was another 900 on ebay a while back with a paintjob described as a wild paintjob :eek: being sold by a dealer for about 2300ish i still think its for sale says it all.

That really is the worst paint job I've ever seen.
The theme is tacky and embarassingly juvenile.
Even from a distance when the detail is blurred, the colour combinations are dire.
The "retro" tag is annoying and pointless too.
The £1.5k starting price is probably its absolute max value, and then you'd need to factor in new paint.

There, I've said it. Hate to criticise, but this one deserves it.
However, there's quite a decent bike there, if you can see past the paint.

The bike looks tidy but the paint 2k ?
I can't believe anyone would fall for that !

Oh dear!

I would want 2k just to be seen with the bloody thing! It's hideous!

Hmm...it's certainly not to Adam's taste. If you look at the overview picture and squint so all the details of the design blur together into an incoherent colourful mush, the bike does look reasonably nice though... guess that's how it will appear on the road... But still, I won't be booking a paint job any time soon :)

The bloke needs to buy a standard black tank shove it on , sell bike and then sell vile tank on its own.

Thats cruel imagine pulling off the baglux to find that no amount of glitter would make it ok ;)

I might have a bid on that one, with the 2k paint job undone it'd be nice :chuckle:

Saw this and thought apart from that damned awful tank and headlight shell it looks half decent, if you didnt fancy a new tank could always go for a 3m Carbon fibre wrap too, that may fall in with the rest of the bike
