Title: Anyone on Here?
Post by: froudy on Friday, 25 March 2022, 07:22 PM
This picture popped up on my Instagram feed a few days ago. The guy calls himself vansolocargo and is based in NSW Aus and does motorcycle transport.
He'd just delivered this GSX1400 to it's new owner. I just wondered if it was someone on here that had bought it.

Maybe Snapeys one?  He had his new one delivered & it has polished wheels.  Pretty sure his is an '08 FE too.  And he's in NSW, so good chance?

Not mine Col. That one went to Jeff on the Central coast. (see pic)

Mine has the correct coloured wheels and the exhaust system the SE should have had.

You have ruined that bike, wheels correct colour but wrong exhaust and no main stand and a weakened swingarm with aftermarket holes drilled in it.

In that case seeing it's ruined I might as well fit twin headlights, a belly pan, a fairing, a tidy tail, a hugger, an oil cooler shroud and definitely a re-shaped multi coloured seat. Should I then paint it black/red or just black?

Only in mint flavour from polos, or fish texture from nets.

I have some left hand drills, do they fill in holes?

At least it will be done right then.

No you can't they are free, but they cost a lot to replace.
