Default finally got it back but sadly..

finally, after a long wait i got back my rc from my mechanic who crashed it about a month ago..however..sad thing, the job done its not up to satisfaction and the front cowling is red in color instead the silver it should be..theres scrathes here and there and after i threaten him with a legal suit, he agree to redo everything until i am fully satisfied..so for the time being still no rc..heres some pics of the rc when i took it that day..

Maybe you shouldn't be dealing with a place called SHAM Cycle

And poor you for having to ride around on a Mille R Factory, what a POS that is!

If the tail was the black '03 style, and the upper part of the tank was black, I'd like it better. But still the red upper is cool.

i dont mind the red upper..its just that so many other thing was unattended which make me really pissed with them..

and i am not going to let go the rc since my akrapovic titanium full system and the pc3 has just arrived few days ago..

and this is the color scheme i intend to use later..

Good luck with the bike

The RSV is one cool ride..I had a short twisties swap with a buddy that has one and it performed GREAT. Easy and light steering, good usable power, great one finger front brakes and what else can I say..another twin.

Gear shifter was hard, rode like a duck at low speed, hard to find neutral like a duck, hard to find rear brakes like a duck, felt like a duck

In the top picture is your bike running? The reason i say this is because the oil level looks a little low!

Nice ride

cheers
