Now that is SICK! Just plain sick. I've never seen anyone with custom molded 3D embellishments. That is Verry cool. How did you do that...The webs on the tank and seat cowl?
Overall, that's a really sophisticated, edgy design. Very classy. The only thing I would change is the chrome strips around the windscreen. I don't like that they do not lay flat. You could cut those from a strip of vinyl and it would work better for me.
Love that radiator guard and hook blade shape on the front fender.

Thanks guys,
Rook, what concerns 3d modelling its a big work with plasticine - to make form and a very big work with epoxy resin,preparation for painting and painting in the end.
Chrome strips around the windscreen, radiator guard and hook blade shape on the front fender: all this things are in process , i want them to engrave but i dont have to much time now.
The bike is in process for repainting so if everything is ok this winter i will do my best to finish all the things.

Sorry, yes, the limited edition white and gold Ohlins is. In not a fan of the gold flames. These straight white and black versions aren't.

extrapolator, I usually keep things a long time and your set up to keep the front tire up makes me wonder how that would effect the life/performance of the stock springs and maybe the seals? For long term owners, seems like a good thing as long as it's worth the time to set it up/remove every time.

It's quick and very easy: 1) Insert rod thru front axle tube, 2) place stand under rod, 3) push down on the stand's handle.
Done.
There's very little weight on the front wheel when the bike is on the center stand. A child could push the handle down to lift the front end. Of course, let that be a warning to all: A child could tinker with it!

Racerx, doesn't look like a 14 anymore but I can appreciate the work.
But I have to wonder if you've actually decreased the intake flow. The stock collector would appear to funnel air in better than two smaller tubes that aren't designed to COLLECT air. Certainly no expert, just an opinion.
