It's just decals, I would hate to paint it and do all that work and then drop it. It is a race bike. I don't think I am that skilled to be doing work like that yet.

My Heart will never be filled Steve, but thank you. It's one idea after the next. If I ever painted someones bike I might not want to give it back, I kinda get a bit attached. I need to get the projects I have finished before I move on to the next one. The RGV 250 is ready, Daytona before Shannonville, and hopefully my SV650 by end of summer. And then I want to wedge a CR500 engine in something small like an RS125. It shouldn't matter what your bike looks like, It's just a blur of green on the track anyways. I may have to come see you at the track for some racing tips.

Thanks Tips. But I'll try my best to keep you behind me, or at least in my sights. I'm going to be ringing my little RGVs neck. I'll actually prob be the last one around or somewhere in amongst the stragglers. I am going to give it my best tho and have some fun.

Very nice work. Where did you get the Yosh exhausts? I have never seen those on a RGV before.

Thanks, I noticed your name? Do you have a gamma? They are not real Yosh pipes. They are just carbon cans that I slapped a Yosh foil exhaust stickers on. I am not even sure if Yosh makes 2 stroke stuff.
