        wow, that might be a rocket, or the engine ooops speedo could be highly ported,

        and yes thats a big lathe in back, one even more bigger was at other side,
        so i am back with some pics,
        tank and panels were back from paint guy,
        not some contrasting color scheme, for the first time i tried my graphic skills (dont kill me for that!!!! ), while being simple at same time, here is the update.
        pic at paintshop....

        back at home,

        the graphics are done in paint, not sticker-work.i had too many ideas about graphics but was afraid that i would ruin it...
        waiting for tomorrow.........

          +1; Lets all start spreading this news so that we can potentially increase the resale value of our Rx to demand 1 Lakh & to shame on the 250cc 4 jokes

            @insane_x97 bai outstanding job with the PAINT! OMGOMGOMGOGMGOMGOMGOGMOGMG work on my petrol tank pl0x?


            @aargee this is the guy's true 160kmph setup



            obviously you can't ride it when it goes popping wheelies to straight 120kmph you just run it in autopilot mode and the switch is strategically hidden inside the headlight

                      You need to apply clear coat

                          bro if you are referring to transparent paints or something like candy color, they are really hard to find.after searching local market, i went for very thin layers + mixed paint with clear(used metallic red mixed with clear,two layers were enough to give beneath paintwork a different tint )although the paint guy was against it (:
                          simple clear coating just gives paint more shine, but material for pearl type effect(as they use in swift, suzuki access)are available.
                          in case of hunk i think its not glazing but pearl effect...
