[ATTACH]IMG00049-20120927-1640.jpg[/ATTACH] couple pics of the bike as it sits now, the PO of the bike had dropped it on both sides causing some rash and a broken tab off the left side main fairing , he also had a chunk missing from the windscreen (so i decided to cut it down for now), right mirror and front turn signal were broken off. I will be tearing down and repairing the plastics and rear section of the bike in a couple of weeks when i park it for the winter

lol i guess that makes sense. I do like the metallic orange but there is just to much of it.

I finally got around to tearing down to repaint and do some other odds and ends. Im going today to pick up new rear plastics,pegs,front signals and a swingarm for $75 Im also getting the 98+ model oil pan and pickup today as well for the 4-1 post exhaust mod for an extra $30. I will have pics posted in the next couple days
