"cause weight differences in riders is usually higher than 20kg LOL- that is 44 pounds if IIRC. That is the difference between a 150 pound rider and a 200 pound rider- modern sportbikes have that much wiggle room, at least, built into thier stuff.

Awesome!

What bike did the forks come off that you need to stiffen them up? Did I miss the post? Probably.

It has but it flows real nice with the tank color. You really can't go wrong with either. I'd also like to add I'd appreciate it if you gave me that bike.

Gold all the way.

Think I'm going Black / Black guys. Gold does look great, no doubt about it but its just too common. Not a lot of bikes out there with Black USD forks. I want it to look as tough and mean and 'custom' as possible.

I'll get a second set of Gold forks to keep on the shelf just in case!

Can I get an amen- the ohlins gold thingy has been done to death. the black flows with the bike much better!

I'm now going... gold! Man this has been BUGGING me all day!

Don't do it man, back away from the gold fever!

the black forks disappear.

the gold is not "too much" with your few other gold accents.

to me it is just right with the gold legs.

if you want to tone them down get some black kawasaki decals cut out so they go up and down the leg.

i can't find an image to demonstrate what i mean.

which means it is unique,and not done to death .

leon

p.s. kinda like this

I'm losing sleep over this.

I'm going to do a full assembly then photoshop it from a million angles in both colours - then make the call.

I fully agree with Leon. The gold is just enough that it accents the paint and makes it pop. Having the gold on the rear and front suspension fits. Black on the front does seem to lake the front end fade too much. Just my two cents
