My younger brother made a very subtle change to the front end of his bike. :clap I think it looks freaking awesome. He's trying to get rid of most of the black and go to either chrome or white.

He also had to get white plug wires since he broke one last weekend...

I haven't decided yet, but something will be done about it.

I'm a fan of all black but in this case I'll say it looks good too. Definetly different.

Personally, I'd change out all chrome from the battery cover back. Then the white and the engine would really stand out nicely!!!!! Just my 2 cents.............Love the white treatment though.:chop

Your scoot looks great! My eyes go right to the white spark plug wires for some reason...they look like they belong, for sure...have you ever visualized powder coating the swingarm white? I thought a little white down low would balance the white with the black...now I sound like a armchair quarterback, huh? Enjoy it - you've earned it!

Thats pretty sweet. I really like the white headlight, it fits the bike perfectly.

Thanks guys, he appreciates it.

I love the idea of powercoating the swingarm white. If we did that, then I'd want to do the belt guards, too. Then maybe a chrome pulley cover and oil tank. Need to keep an even balance, somewhat. Plans for next winter already...

I like all of those ideas, but evrything has to wait till next winter. I am still working on painting my helmet the same color. I don't think the parents would like me tearing my bike apart yet, I give it another year.

Oil cover in white as far as the right side is concerned would look good to me. Left side is trickier. Nice scoot, either way!
