Hi Albie

think its looking good.

Only thing I think needs changing is the wheels as the gold doesn't go with anything.

Now a set of carbon ones......

Cheers
Stuart

Albie,
Your Monnie will always be "the" Carbon Monnie!
Sorry but to my aging eyes, Red will never be an improvemet over carbon

It's deffo the seat cowl which doesn't tie in with the rest I reckon, the number board bit would need to be red to balance it out.

I would like mine to be all black/carbon one day, I'll bring an adjustable spanner and a mallet to Mallory and we can swap frames

To me it's the tank that doesn't quite fit with the rest of it... I'd be thinking about painting a bit of a white number board and red outline on the carbon tank panels to match the tail. But then I don't really like red bikes (frames are allowed of course! )

Ahh see you can go black and red which goes well. I have the seat cowl too so will try on. It really needs to be seen in the flesh.Its never going to look as cool as total carbon or paint on carbon showing. It just a new fresh look for me. I get bored easy. Ducatis fault for making replaceable panels.

Carbon wheels never . Waste of money on me . Too many potholes about.

Funny you should say that. Dont forget I have still another set of white with tricolor. They will be getting respayed at some time . May just get a better tricolor colour design or maybe Gulf colours. Pale blue orange and white.

Those who didn't come missed out on that too. Parade lap my ass
