Hey Guys.  I have been posting here a while and still haven't showed by B4.  I figured I would show you what I did to her this weekend.  

Here what she looked like before.

If anyone is interested in a 3/4 fairing let me know.  I would be willing to part with it.   :grin:

Sorry about the size I will try to keep them smaller next time.

Nice change.

Looks like your chain might need adjusting?

Nice!

Yeah - that chain is hangin' pretty good.  Is it really rusty or is that just the pic?

No (its that rusty) I just adjusted (about 5 mintues ago) it but it is time to change it.  Any suggestions on sprockets and chains?  
I found this chain on ebay

I don't plan on keeping it much past the summer so I don't see the point of putting something incrediably expensive on it.

Oh and the beauty marks came with the bike, (thats why I got it so cheap it scared the piss out of the previous owner so he sold it for $500).

If you don't plan on keeping it, the RK chain will be OK. From what I've seen, the DID VM & ZVM chains last longer than the RK premium chains given the same bike and level of care, but the RK's do last to acceptable levels, so I'm not saying they're crap, just not quite as good as DID.
