New respray pics

Well after a solid two weeks of thundercat ownership and having only managed a few decent runs and many other shorter (soggier) ones I thought id capitalize on the mrs being away for a week and respray the bike as I wasnt too keen on the red (my firms tops are red so the colour just reminds me of work lol)

So here is a pic of it when I first got it:



And how it looks now after fitting a pyramid single seat cowl, mra double bubble, tank cover, removing the grab handles and smoothing off the rear fairings and respraying/re decal-ing (if thats even a word)









Stripped and prepped the fairings on the saturday, sprayed them on the sunday then spent the next week after work in the evenings finishing and reassembling the bike and was done for her return on friday "no love it looked like that when I bought it"

Stunning bike that colours are fantastic in fact probably
One of the nicest colour schemes I've seen, simples yet effective, well done, would live to see her out on a ride out some time

looks realy nice. did u buy the tank protector if so where been looking for one for a while.

cheers guys, yeah il definitely be coming for a ride out ... the tank cover is a bagster tank cover (http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/001166/003106/Bagster-Tank-Cover-suitable-for-Yamaha-YZF600-R-Thundercat-1996) but I bought one off ebay (was blue) and I dyed it black.

I'm loving your colour scheme, the best i've seen so far. Top job!

ooooouuusshhh thats a rather nice and tidy looking bike there, very original

thanks very much.

Looks simple and effective, good work

Just hope you have not lost some top end as the black, red and black ones are the quickest you know!

The license isn't any cheaper now it is black and white.

Looking very nice
Good job!

Cheers

That looks absolutley fantastic! Good work fella..

That's a nice looking colour scheme!! I think I might do mine that colour next!!!

Woah, there's another brilliant re-modelling of a 'Cat!

Well done that man.

I think we're going to have to have a parade of 'new' 'Cat's this year. A bit of a beauty contest. Ross - you're barred!

Nicely done!

If I may though, I hope you don't regret removing the rear grab handles - they are a very handy way of holding, manoeuvring and catching a toppling bike.....

Dazzlingly beautiful in it's simplicity . . . A stunning Cat indeed.

In this case Less truely is More !

Good job, nicely, and well done.

Black and White's the best colour

thanks for all the kind comments chaps ... and i'm hoping I wont live to regret my grab handle removal as I have already almost proved that im more then capable of dropping the bike even when they were still attached lol

just liked the look of the single seat cowl and nobody Ive asked are prepared to get on the back of it anyways

Ditto prefer the look of the back end without the grab handles, and if you drop it it's easier to lift it just using the bars

Just had to retake a look at the no grab handles, looks damn good without them, Nice paint job too,

P.s, welcome to the forum bud

Very nice mate.

Stunning!

Fug...ing amazing !!!!!!!

yep....looks excellent.

very nice job. Well done.

Really like the new look.

But its definitely gonna be a pig to keep clean!

Great mate, really nice.

very nice! its crazy how different the cat ends up looking depending on who's doing the changing

If it wasnt for my grab handles id have dropped my bike a couple of times when manouvering my bike around the drive
