Damn, the bike is awesome. Personally i think the frame looks really good now, although if you had to change the colour i reakon orange would look sick, or if you wanted to go all out maybe even pink!? :rolleyes:

Looking pretty good there - gotta love the Bullit.

But why changing the colour? That looks great!

I love the colour to (and now decided im keeping it), its just got a few scrathces. Decided im going to take it to get it sanded down in the those places though and painted the exact colour so it looks brand new. Also getting this polish stuff on it ( no idea what they called it) and new decals.

Should be nice. :D

What's wrong with the brakes? :confused: They feel nice. Might change to 4pots later. :p

At the moment - getting 05 Marzocchi 888 soon, new front rim.

And I'm still going ahead changing the colour. :D

Have got some mags. They're sitting in my room....

Didn't like them. Although, they are fairly trashed. After the forks and rim (and anything else I break before :rolleyes: ) I will change to 4pots.

Also, any suggestions for a new paint job would be great. :D

Well, if you're hell bent on changing colours, I would love to see a Bullit with a bright kinda Limey Green, with a metallic hint in it. Hard to describe a colour, but I'd like to see it.
