 Hi one and all. I live on the NE coast of Scotland and as well as my NTV650P I have a GPX600R(daily transport) and a GSX1100G that has a 1216 Wiseco and Remus 4-1 upgrade. The Honda has 25k on the clock and I`ve just fitted the luggage framework recently acquired from Germany allowing me to attach topbox and panniers...I`m quite pleased with the result. The fairing is the only other non standard fitment. I`ve had my eye on this excellent site for a while and have finally taken the plunge to join in the fun ! I will post more pics if I get the hang of it... Edited by McF - in order to allow the photo to show |

Welcome Buckiemick and congrats on your first post
With my soooper admin powers, I modified your post so that the photo shows.
Not sure how, but you had the img code all before the photo URL
If you click on your post and "modify" you will see how it should look - pretty easy, but not until you get used to it!
Very nice aNTy, but I hope you aren't too proud of the colour. You love it or hate and Jazz may well comment ;D
I think you must be our most Northern member - have you pinned in the map yet?

Thanks for help-now let`s see if I`ve got it right!    Edited by McF - hit "enter" after each [/img] to put the photos underneath each other - otherwise your browser might put them side by side[/i][/u] looking really nice though I like to put the thumbnails on here and allow people to click through to photobucket - a lot quicker to laod the page and easier to see all of the shots. I had a quick look in your album but couldn't see the thumbnail option |

Wotcha Mick, knew you'd take the plunge sooner or later. Your old Kappa box is now doing sterling service inland - amazing just how much crap these things can swallow!

Fit like Pete-got that old rustbucket of yours cleaned up yet lol  Thanks for the comment Willie but I do think that someone in the Honda paint dept must have been having a very gay moment when they developed this colour ;D |

Mick, I had it all clean and everyfing - frame spots touched up with silver smoothrite (dead professional, me!), paintwork all polished (with Mer from me caravan), even dabbed some Autosol on the shiny bits ...... then I went and rode into Dundee to see my step-dad today, extreme cr*p all over the roads is now all over the bike  People, please don't knock the colour, it ain't properly turquoise unless Honda used it in their 'United colours of Benetton' phase - as indicated by my old putt-putt, the devine Miss Whiplash:  Oh, the names I had to endure with that between my extremely masculine thighs .... happy daze! |
