    I was thinking of upgrading rides but decided to spend some money on the things i wanted and keep this bike cause it is clean....... so heres the list!!
    one peice motoGP roo leathers
    sidi boots
    scotts dampener (love it)
    integrated rear taillight in green tint
    smaller aftermarket front indicators
    puig double bubble light smoked screen
    michelin race tires ( very different feel!!)
    and
    attack plastics which im painting green and gold with "roo power" written along the bottom

    $3000US later i have no buyers remorse ( which isnt normal for me) and cant wait for my first track days!!

    photos are uploaded in my albums. http://www.perthstreetbikes.com/forum/inde...m&album=181
    whatdoya all think??!! at least now i look the part!! lol

    I wanna say thanks to stoneville (who sold me my first bike) and others on here who were helpful to me when i first started riding , it has grown into a part of my life i really enjoy.

    got the suit for $608 on sale in a shop here in town, spent a week researching and was gonna buy it on ebay througha shop for $790 then i walked inthe shop just to try it on for size and the tag said $840.. the guy said "thats on sale if you like it" was meant to be... i was so worried about a suit being uncomfortable and hard to get a good fit but serisously it breaths so well and is super comfortable, just hot to wear!!

    why you say no on the "roo power" ... just trying to be auzzie over here...... too much???

    Maybe and Aussie flag painted larger on the lower fairing, tasteful but still in their face.


    (or find an old Ford Super Roo sticker - they wont know what it is coz they had some other critter on theirs)

    ‘90% useless’ and ‘10% distorted'

    no need to blur nothing, never been ticketed and never even attempted a wheelie.... i'll more than likely be bringing it back with me in a few now that i spent this money on it so there will be one more 6RR in town

    the indi 500 is this sunday!!! boring..... if you wanted to head this way indiana is a little boring, riding wise deals gap is a massive attraction, tourist stuff its better to go chicago. For the small domestic flight costs its worth seeing some more of the country, the keys in florida, new york, san fran etc...
