I’m really not sure about the stock headlamp. It’s certainly iconic, but perhaps not the look I’m after for this bike. The problem is trying to find a better looking alternative. A small bikini fairing with mini twins might be the way to go, or perhaps when it arrives one from the new style 2008 Monster, we'll see.
One thing that is being changed in the meantime however, is the finish of the rim. Chrome doesn’t feature anywhere else on this bike, so it looks a little out of place. Instead I've tried a brushed aluminium look, echoing the tips of the MIVV cans at the other end of the bike. A little better...perhaps.
