    ^^ indeed the light looks like its been made for it. I think if you fit the side plastic of the FZ-S, it would look more muscular.

    One thing, please remove the batman number plate. It looks so out of place. Get a single line thin number plate done.

            One suggestion. Please remove that fake xBhp sticker and put up the original one.

              the FZ head has fit so naturally into it. Very high quality paint work indeed.
              Yes, the chain cover and the disc in red look a little overdone.
              The batman numberplate is not going well in my opinion. I would suggest ones where the numbers are forged on the plate (I cant recollect what they are called). But these are minor points. amazing peice of artwork overall

                            @anirudh: I dont think I have to answer this one, because I dont think you will understand what I want to say anyways

                            @Mav, Will give it to you, but can you keep her the the same way or better than I have ?

                            The bat Number plate has came up more than once, I some how like the finish Quality & looks of it.

                            Didint understand the fake sticker part !!

                              Couldn't stop myself posting this.
                              Do you really think it matters if the bike is 1 day new or like you said 50year old?
                              Or if it is a 250 or a 600 or a litre class bike.

                              It is about having a connection with your bike and taking care of it. For some people a bike is just a medium to transport them from one point to another but for some it is more than that and clearly you don't come under the latter category.
                              As Sunil sir said you will anyways not understand what one feels like to see your bike redone after all hardships one and his bike has been through during all the trips, tours, races, etc.

                              I still see people maintain their RD350s like spanking new even though it is more than 20 years old and parts are hard to procure. But why do they do it because they love their bikes and have a connection with the bike. And I really appreciate them for it.

                              I can very well imagine with this kind of thinking what would you do with your bike even if it is a 600CC after it is 6 months old. Oh yeah the best you'll do is rip the bike apart and sell the bike to a stranger and buy a new one and do this all over again.
