Re: What have you done to your Gladie today

gday folks,

im joe, bumblebee's worser half.

the spade shall be used to bury the sh!tfull standard parts in the back yard lol

as for the rest of the stuff, i'll do a full write up as i come to doing it all, all is not a problem, except for the part where i have to remount the headlight to the new front end, not a big drama, but i know i'll have to fabricate some plates to mimic the standard gladius mounting.

i dont want to give too much away just yet, but work will start in the next couple of weeks, as all we have left to collect is the k2 gsxr thou wheels.

once work starts i'll get deb busy with the camera and we'll keep a running log of all the mods.

cheers.joe.

Re: What have you done to your Gladie today

I sent out the bike to be powder coated. The rearset and grab handles. The grab handles will be blue and the foot guard rear sets will be black.

Below is what the should look like.




I need to have a pic showing what the grab handles should look like.

The hangers look really nice in satin Black I think the shiny footrests and nuts will look really good against it too.

Them there hangers look good in black. I was'nt sure if they would blend in with the blue frame but they don't half look bad. When i get mine done i think i'll keep the footpegs as they are. Not sure about blue grab handles. Time will tell.

Got to say your bike's looking jolly spiffing. All most as nice as mine eh
