It's in the post mate you should get it any day now.

what was the paint code you used on the engine

I used an aerosol from Car Plan, it was called Silver (Met) 08. Also on the can was CC YAV089.

Hope that helps.

A really good job....and I love the candy red........

Nice bike mate.

I went to a prof. paint shop, they just mixed up a match and sold me 250 ml!
A friend than did the paint job.

why thank you kind sir

looks awesome tony, good job

Panels changed
 

Well I decided to play and swap the metallic panels for my favourite colour blue. I swapped my spare red set (not the metallic ones) with Chopper from here. I got them today and fitted them. I also purchased what I thought was a blue XTX front fender off Ebay. When I got it home and unpacked it I could see it was an R fender. I fitted it to see what it looked like but its silly so have contacted the Ebay seller to arrange a refund/return.

It was advertised as an X fender so I should be ok to return it.

Annoying.

Rubbish picture as it was dark outside.

I returned the R fender and purchased a proper brand new X one from Yamaha. Prices for the basic plastics have more than doubled in the last year. They are probably still cheap relative to other makes but I am tight!

Only problem is my second hand blue panels have weathered a little so the new parts really stands out!

I may get a Yamaha sticker for the rear plastic as this panel does not have one that should be there. Then thats about it for mods I think, I am really happy with the bike overall.
