J P. I like the Multi as well with the gold wheels. I feel a Norton / JPS scheme coming on...........

I just need to wear the tyres out first so I can fit new ones at the same time and not have to pay to get them removed and refitted. Trackday anyone?

White looks best above, though it looks quite silvery. Dunno about white-white. Still, works on the S4Rs so no reason why not.

Looks smart even if you did nick my exhaust, that I ,ahem, nicked off some a bloke in Belgium

Whats sticking out from under the seat or am I seeing things? Reckon you should get tank strip and tail nib in red, maybe, maybe a bit OTT.

I quite fancy a new paint job, but I cant quite put my finger on what it should be.

Now Alun to keep your twin twins theme you've got to go for white wheels...I've always thought that colour combo looked best...

I know white is hard to keep clean but your a polished git so it won't be a problem..

Right, Firstly how the hell do you do 'Multiquote' cause it never works for me?

Rac3r; Thanks for the images, thats a big help. I think the last one is best although I agree with Bex, it looks a bit silvery?
Bex; The bit hanging down under the seat is the tax disc as I can't find anywhere else to puit it as yet, plus a lanbar sensor cable. As to the pipe, we all saw it together love and loved it!
Buzzbomb; White seems to be winning and is my favourite so far. Yes, I do like my polish as you do.

More votes please?

It's got to be white, that style of wheel looks really nice in white, I've even thought of having the wheels of the SF done white as the old S4R alway's looked nice in black with white wheels, the dull gold colour isn't my favorite.

As for polishing I have to keep it nice don't I......

Hi Alun,

From the 3 colours you've had photoshop adjusted I'd say white wheels. It keeps things inline with your collection. I would suggest 'powder coating' them though. After looking at Buzzbombs Hyper (red Wheels) the colour looks very rich, especially when polished.

The M1100S are very addictive. The little screen does make a difference to buffeting, so a good idea with the carbon to cover the electrics and a maybe a similar screen to Buzz's SF, if it would fit?

Looks good so far, will we see it Belgium?

I wondered was it a tax disc. Mines still in my jacket pocket where its always been, never quite decided where to put it.

Was kidding about the exhaust, don't blame you, its delicious

Are you keeping the logo on?

I missed the MCN write up that week

Dont suppose anyone has a copy of the article they dont need?

Or maybe scan it & post it (dont know how that stands with copyright laws??)

BTW, out of the bunch I reckon the white look best - and I hate white wheels too.
