Blimey, that's a serious bit of kit for the track.

You won't have any trouble finding parts for that.

Well first of all get rid of the horrible blue (puke)
may paint those bits red.

But I quite liked this when I saw it.

I've always like the Rothmans look on the Hondas

Good choice! One of my favorite Honda colour schemes and always wished they had released the blade in those colours rather than the repsol ones
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

(y) Excellent choice IMHO Mr Kingfixer.

Although not remotely in the same league, it reminded me, I once did a "castrol scheme" makeover of a MBX125 many years ago. It improved the looks immensely, however (in the recent words of Deegee) "you can't polish a turd", so it was still an MBX125.

I may pollute your thread wit a pic', if I can find one.

I agree that is nice Duke but i am just taking the easy option, the bike just needs to be white for the castrol version then a few decals. Schimples !!

Nice choice Mick.

Castrol scheme is a classic and also easy as you suggest.

Have you seen Jenny Tinmouths current stealth black Blade she is campaigning in BSB. Looks good IMO.

This is cool IMO too.
