Mismatched carbon* twill stripes (the diagonal lines in the weave). Hanging offence!

Didn't see the rest of the bike after getting stuck on that.

*that coloured stuff is actually 50/50 carbon and glass fibres, the glass is clear/white and hence shows up the coloured resin.

The anodised aluminium shite is horrible but the carbon on the tank and seat might look alright on it's own - the swingarm miss match stuff is nasty though.

The headlight, fairing, seat and tank bits don't match either though.
