I thought I would take some images of the bike now that she is all but finished. I am pleased with how the bike has turned out, not only in looks but also in handling and fun. The 350 really is a little rocket and rewards you with a smile every time you roll it low around a corner. It is to all intents a baby Aprilia RSV-R and reminds me very much of the Aprilia. The full story of how this bike got to here is covered in the other topic, When Your Heart Rules Your Head

The next thing is a rebuild of the front brake with improved disc and replacement master cylinder. In order to use the bike fully, I feel that a much better brake is required.

Yes the tank was chromed. The indicators I would prefer to do without but as the point of this project was to get a bike I could take my kids on behind, safety won the day and some indicators were added, as was a brake light switch to the front brake.

"Shiny!", hardly seems an adequate response ;)

It looks fantastic, well done! I am well aware of how much effort (not to mention cash!) that has cost you. I hope it keeps that grin on your face for a good while!

Yeah! Congrats, Paz, cos they're always all but finished :wink:
Seriously, I think it looks really great. Personally (and I know it's not my bike) I favour bigger indicators - I hate small indicators!

While it seems like every bastard out there is trying to knock us off our bikes, why fit small safety devices? Mine are as big as can be. I love them big. Super big. Trump big!

Great looking bike. Won't get lost in a crowd of red 3 1/2's. Enjoy!
