Adding a new twist

[furry]

I'm not a fan of the tank pad on the older Sports. They just look out of place! So I was playing around looking at some pics and saw a V11 with a cool pad and started reading up. After learning how to pull the pad (from here) I laid some glass and am in the process of working it down to fit. I'm also going to tighten up the edges for a little better fit on the tank. Work in progress, stay tuned:

So the end result will be a hard tank pad painted to look like this (my photoshop work):

 

(Note: the flag is on backwards lol, it will be painted correctly sitting on the bike

Good on ya furry - I applaud the 'Don't like it - change it!' can-do attitude.

 

Here's another tricolor balls-out version - My link - Enzo might experiment with it!

Done with the shaping. Looks better than original and not even painted yet! I'll sling some paint on it in a day or two.

Good work.

 

If I had a short-frame V11 I'd want to redo the pad too, only I would make it flush mount w/ the tank metal, & mold in some hard points to bolt on camera/GPS/tank bag/whathaveyou. But that's just me...

^ Pretty unique I must say!

 

Painted. Will snap a few pics mounted this weekend.

Done and mounted. Not bad... Guess I'll run it like this until I'm tired of looking at it.
