Alright folks...been a bit busy over the last couple of months with the Speed triple, I fitted a Cibie headlamp unit, Osram Night Breaker bulb & Superlux LED side light along with replaceing all of the instrument lights for LEDs too. Rear bulbs where replaced with some 13 Superlux LED stop Tails for good measure !
I sent off to Hong Kong, of all places, for some black Nikko horns to replace the chrome rimmed ones.
Over the past year I have also been collecting replacement body work from ebay, I already had a tank that I bought (£10 bargin or what) for the filler cap for the Sprint it also came with the tap & fuel sender that I sold for £25 whoo hoo....side panels from a Super III for £20 the pair ! and a Carbon front fender for £45 that was non factory and the carbon was not top notch...but I had plans for that ;-) Carbon rear hugger on the bike was going to get the paint treatment too..
Anyroad took all the bits to a chap I know for paint, I had mocked up what I wanted at home from a idea I had on here about a year ago...nothing too way out, still wanted to see it was an Orange Speed Triple but wanted too "moody it up" a bit, I always though the white decals where a bit girly....Orange & white..naaahhh Orange & black..yeah !!!
Bolted back together this evening and rattled off a few pics, they don't do it justice but I'll get some proper ones into the picture thread soon, just as soon as I get some fuel into it.
You took what was one of the best looking s3's out there and, well, made it even cooler.
Like ice, man, like ice.
