The beauty of fibreglass is you can reinforce it from the back if it seems flimsy.

What about Ford RS purple? Great colour.

Nice one! I'd go for one colour too, that blue is very nice and maybe use the silver for decals.
My mates R1 is all blue and looks nice like that.
Did you buy them last night with the 20% off? Discount should have shown instantly when you put the code in at the checkout.

it did on my account but on my other halfs for some reason never worked, I called ebay ill see what they say

I've really taken to BMW Lava Orange, which is a K1300S colour. With Black wheels, that might look quite good? Very nice in the sun, which I suppose is no good to you.

(I'll never be an interior designer)

Do the two tone again, keep it simple. Blue on top and tank, silver lower. Could always get the painter to use some nice metallic paint so it sparkles in the Knockhill sunshine

Blank canvas, let's start again.

I want this to look good this time so I'm going to pay a guy, well maybe. I got these if the eBay discount cones through for £160, I'm a little pessimistic to there quality. If they feel ok I'll get them done professionally by the guy who done my helmet, he can't fk up straight lines. If not, it's down to the woods.

I have a slight ambition of doing one race at Knockhill if I get into the 55s. Is there regulations as to where to put your number or how big it should be. This is just pub talk at this stage tbf.

Where did you get the little stand for the fairings? I want one of those!

As for colours, how about Krypton green (a Lotus colour)? That was on my shortlist.

It's easier (and more importantly cheaper) if he keeps the tank the grey.

Give this guy a shout - http://www.edc-designs.co.uk/

His work is second to none and prices very reasonable.

There is always the temptation to paint the tank red, stick a few Ghostbusters decals on it and that's it.

[Prof Prolapse]

My Mrs. got me a T-Shirt of Bill Murray that says "Back off I'm a scientist" last week.

So I fully support the Ghostbusters idea.

Do they do a "back off im a former lab tech" one?

[Prof Prolapse]

I sincerely hope not.

Black and pink playboy bunny colour scheme. And you can get one of those shiny rubber rainsuits like the guy at Oulton, to compliment it. You'll probably meet some really interesting new friends too.

Yep and it's very fitting, as Allegro means fast, but nothing else about it was
