Cheers all.
Pretty much what iv got in mind john, minus the harley exhaust and rearsets.
Gettin twin bandit style headlights, and the naked divvys clocks which incidentally are bandit style clocks. The frame looks sort of like a bandit frame, as does the tank. Screw this im gettin a bandit :)
Stipped the front end down, which with one hand is actually quite difficult lol. Looking into getting the old end can welded onto my downpipes as iv scratched the end can to bits.

Do you really want a blandit copy? Make it different. Bike is looking not too badly bent a few days and you'll be able to sort that out. Get a loud can on it make it a screaming monster.

I do like bandits, was going to get one but couldnt find one near me at the right price then i got this.
Doubt il get a respray to expensive, and some genius designer colour coded the frame so i would have to get the frame done as well. Iv got the 400 to be tarty this ones a hack.

I do have a bandit and thankfully ive finally got all of it's little niggly problems fixed. How about twin lights but on top of each other rather than side by side?

Problem is, the only twin headlights i can find are all side mounting, and i think unless i got some brakcets custom made which takes time money ect i dont think it will work, although i reckon it would look good.

Yea a bit of change of direction.
No longer going for a streetfighter. Somehow i got talked into making it standard by my dad dunno how he managed it.
But im not to bothered got silver full plastics for 150 quid, fairing tank tail piece clocks master cylinder handle bars. Was tempted to just have the entire bike off them. Pretty much back together now will probably finish it off tomorow with the fairing. Looks alright with the purrple frame.

Good work steve may as well keep it standard if it'll only cost you that.
