Pics of WC Stickers, SW-Motech crash Bars and Sump Guard below.

Looking a bit better, the plain silver was just too plain, much happier now, and the bash plate is doing a great job of protecting the engine, it came in bare Ali, but I had it painted black as the bike was too shiny already.

You're right about breaking up the silver. It did need it IMO. I think Yamaha missed a trick with that particular color way. I love silver bikes but I always thought they should have gone with more black .... your black crash bars and bash plate are a good combo .... may be a black front fender. I do think perhaps you should get the WC knee pads/tank protectors though .... they make a lot of difference to the overall look of the bike.
Keep it up the bike looks great ::008::

We never got the silver color here in Canukstan or in the US. My favourite color by far. Love the silver wheels. Find all the black a bit boring. Nice looking bike.

Yes Givi Airflow screen, not pretty but works well and is easy to adjust ::008::

Agree on too much silver, which is why I went for Black Luggage, I reckon it would have been better with black side panels against the silver (like the white bikes) but the crash bars now break up the huge silver slab effect quite nicely.

Aware Bash Plate is not up to SuperCross standards, but it will never see more than a well graded gravel track or easy dirt trail, main purpose is t keep crap from damaging paint on engine which it does with ease.

The lights on the forks, are they turned sideways? Benefits?

That's not a light... That's a UK Tax Disc in its holder so it's properly displayed.

Ha! Couldn't see any lettering on Rasher's. Looks like a little spot light.

It fills up with condensation and becomes unreadable.

These days it is all ANPR so I have no idea why we still have discs, years ago this was how you proved you had taxed the vehicle and the Plod would often look for the disc if they stopped you, now they only stop you if their computer has told them to do so, and there are ANPR camera's around on main roads that will detect any vehicles without tax that drive past.
