    Matt black looks rubbish mate....Sure you have other plans for it but as it is there it dont look to great...Being honest (my opinion) ;)

    Them front forks deserve to be on a better looking scooter than HOW it is at the moment ;)

    james the red was knackered so it had to be done ?sorry you dont like it,i think there is too many glittery handbags about its not a lammy afterall ?thanks for your thoughts though :punk:
    got a mate that comes round on a immaculate red 172 with r36 forks and mine in red next to it just looked so tatty belive me?
    its all about what it goes like for me not the looks too much :D

    i agree with shiny, its not about looks, my quickest scooters always look like they have just done 10 rounds with a crusher and have more different colous than your average rainbow

    All i was saying was that the matt black does it no favours nothing on how it goes or anything...That's all.

    All runners are ugly as sin so theres no point trying to make it look tarty, its the engine that matters.

    You did a good job on it though
