That's very pretty, and without the usual eyecatching annoyances.

That looks good, especially the tank. I’d quite happily have that.

Does a bike like that really need a steering damper?

Slightly different but my SRX600 kicked me off with a vicious lock to lock tank slapper at 60mph once

Doesn't look drastically different to the stock SR400, which is probably a good thing.

Could do without the chunky tyres tho'

Kin awful, wtf is that steering damper (or is it a RH prop stand), oil cooler looks like it's come off a car and is held on by Jubilee clips. And someone tried setting fire to the exhaust. There's only one colour to be used with those 'blocks' on the tank and that's yellow.

I can almost say I like that. Steering damper looks silly, I'm not convinced by the tank colours, and I don't like the rear sprocket that colour... but other than that...

Quite like that, its got all the parts than I feel a bike usually needs in orddr to be practical.
Not blown away by the way they've blued the absolute crap out of the exhaust just for tbe sake of it but a quick polish and few miles would allow them to blue at the headers and pretty much not everywhere else would lessen its trying too hard look.
