One bike that impressed me at Stafford, was the 350 on the LC stand with the carbon wrapped tank, and carbon panels. Cracking job on the tank! a real Brahma! And thanks to its owner for the chat ( can't remember his name due to the fact that my brain was mush after see so much exotica, and feeling like a fox in a hen hut!)

speaking of carbon fiber, as a painter i saw some carbon fiber look-a-like parts for a car that were done with a stensill and a air brush recently and the finish was so real it took me 5 minuites to realy examin the parts to notice. defenetly worth a go with some lc side pannels or other similer parts if your handy with a spray gun. the stensils are only a few quid on ebay aswell.

I think the balck TZR 250 3XV to the right of Johns bike is also carbon bodywork. It is owned buy the guy that did the carbon work for him. He runs a company that manufactures carbon fibre products, however I cant remember what its callled. The TZR also has a 500cc YPVS engine. Was featured in Performance Bike a few years ago, Ill see if i can find it for you.

More than bit reminiscent of Hand Painted neckties. and just as convincing/useful... those at least were pictures of pretty wimmin.
