Nice paint.
I see you’ve got an option on the front mudguard, but if it were me I’d have definately gone for a white mudguard with the stripes to match all the other panels.
Just my opinion.

WOW, they look fantastic mate . Mr Cordwell has come up trumps again. I'd go for the blue muddie personally. Be a nice contrast against the white wheels. And the French blue is a lovely colour. Great choice. Cant wait to see it on the bike. Dusty

Cheers for the comments chaps.
Mr Cordwell has done his usual excellent job.
The reason for the blue mudguard is that there is a lot of white on this bike, i just think it breaks it up a bit.
Oh and Yogi, i spat beer all over my computer when i read your comment! Very funny, just checking, have you got my address...!
Anyway, going to fit it all today, have a spare ticket for a wedding in Windsor if anyone is interested...

DONE!
So, she runs, MOT booked for Tuesday, then tax (currently on sorn). On Tuesday it will be ten weeks since my ACL surgery, so i can ride!
It might look like she has just had a respray after my 'off' but it actually took a lot more to get her to this stage:
Frame: Stripped, straightened, blasted and powdercoated Swingarm: Changed to RGV 'p' arm, blasted and powdercoated Front wheel: Repaired and re-powdercoated Forks: Repaired and painted Headlight cradle/mount: Replaced by NOS item Clutch lever: Replaced, by levers adjusters changed Clutch perch: NOS Handlebars: New Grips: New Bottom Yoke: Repaired Clutch cover: Replaced plus new window Oil Pump cover: Replaced NOS Chain: New Footpegs: New Back brake lever: Repaired Grab rail: Replaced Rear master cylinder: Replaced Fuel Cap: NOS Fuel Tap: NOS Brake Hoses: Replaced Coolant and over flow hoses: Replaced Fairing infills: Modified Left hand switch gear: Re-painted Tank: Replaced, second hand Sidepanels: New replicas Fairing: New replica Tail piece: Replaced, second hand Pipes: New plus dyno set up by Muttsnuts All bodywork repainted
And probably a load of other bits and pieces! Mouse

That looks great and definitely my favourite colours. It's very subtle.
Alot of the 4LO hybrids look like fat dolphins.
So glad you got it up and running. I hope your injuries are not playing up too much

Many thanks everyone, Dusty, Yogi, Andy71330, Tobyjugs, philmill, donkeychomp, Stusco, Mr K and Loudpipes for your kind comments.
Hey Loudpipes, don't forget i have seen your hybrid and that is none too shabby! Have you decided on colour yet?
Well, wish me luck, off for MOT tomorrow and then out to see how she feels with the new pipes and 66rwhp!
All the best
