Hi,

Welcome!!

You have come to the right place for anything GSX1400.

Happy riding.

[Masterbates]

Thanks guys,

You are totally right Sir Prancelot, so much information to go through.  In the short term I will be focusing on just cleaning the bike up, I am thinking going in the direction of the GSX1400Z all black colour scheme.  The trick is knowing where to start

[Mrg]

Maybe Red IS Batman!   @Red Biker    Red, would you like to instruct young Bates in the finer details of black? Seems he would appreciate a bit of tutelage, that is if you have a bit of spare time away from the (Bat) cave.

Are you seriously saying Batman's real name is Ted 

[KiwiCol]

Well, could be . . . you'd have to ask him next time you see him in a mask n cape.   "statue Ted?"

[Red Biker]

Lol , ask yourself if you've ever seen Batman and me in the same room!!!!

Ted is my un assuming name ala Clarke Kent

@ Masterbates welcome along 

If you're coming over to the dark side, one thing that is non negotiable is getting rid of the old blunder buss exhaust. It just doesn't fit with the whole 'stealth' look.

Engine casings I would powder coat but you can do the fork lowers, rear hangers, clocks yourself with rattle cans as a short term measure.

I've also done my headers/rocker trim & engine block with HTP myself as well.

My tank and all fairing are vinyl wrapped in Black satin whole lot was £150.

For a 'splash' of colour the wheels are a metallic wizard red, the last bit of chrome (stanchions) is being banished later this summer with nitrade coating 

[Red Biker]

It's been persisting down all day today so I've bought the bike inside!

[KiwiCol]

The BAT BIKE! and you've finally got the trainer wheels off too!    Well done mate! There'll be not stopping you in your crime fighting ways now . . .

[Masterbates]

Oh damn, so Red's bike is totally blacked out...  I was thinking more like http://urbangetto.jp/web/?p=36156#jp-carousel-36157
We will see though, in the meantime I have thrown on the Delkivic cans that came with the bike, I'll take better pictures when I have some daylight. 

[Red Biker]

Looks better already MB 

Proper black out

Faster than the speed of dark.
