Just wondering was black a original color option in the US?
In the EU I have only seen the E1 in burgundy red and silver metallic.
/A

I saw a low-mile silver metallic that I wanted to purchase last week but I would have been cutting it too close, funds wise, as I'm in between jobs right now.

OP's bike has the same pin stripe pattern and rear fairing that I like so much on that model. Very nice build OP.Exhaust came out fantastic as well.

Your bike looks awesome! Hope you've been enjoying it. The black pipes seem to go nicely with the color scheme.

What bars did you put on here? I like the look.

Great looking bike! Lots of money and time are invested, bike looks like brand new, how much it can sell for?

I don't know where the bars came from but they are some sort of superbike bend. I wound up guncoating them because they were a little rusty.

Since posting the earlier photos I came across a deal I couldn't refuse and picked up these shocks. I've got some Racetech emulators too but haven't installed them yet. Soon...
