I thought I'd share a pic or two of my bike, having just given it a bit of a clean and polish and having had the bars powder coated as similar a grey I could find to the frame.
The luggage rails have also had some clear vinyl wrap added to try and delay any chipping.
I'm happy with the way they look but no doubt there will be some on here who will be of a different opinion... :rolleyes:

Have to say, that looks the business. Currently in the process of blacking up my '16 GS TB - hopefully it comes out looking as tidy as yours. :thumb2
 
IMHO.....stunning. I like that a lot. :bow BTW, could you do a close up pic of how you have mounted your quad lock please.:beerjug:

I'll have to come back to you on that one. My powder coater did have a bugger of a time finding the right powder.
 
Looks great, nice job. What is the make and model the wind deflector? How effective is it?
 
It is wrap. I’ve got to get some more (hopefully this week) so I’ll let you know. Effectively, took the bike to a place close by that does wrap (“Tintinit” at Thruxton) and got the closest match to the frame colour they could do.
 
Looks good, I especially like the wrapped boxes.
 
Looks bobbins very nice job indeed,mind your missing an EU flag on the reg arent you? :D
