Hi guys...

[harbo]

Dave from NE Hampshire in England here. I ride a 2005 R3. It has a custom red and silver paint job, TORs and cat bypass, huge single headlamp, pull-back bars, various extra chrome parts and still adding/changing bits. Previously have had a string of Sprint STs and need to sell the current one to keep the other half happy

Welcome - I'd be keen to see some pics of your R3, particularly that headlight and any comments on the mod..............sounds cool.

Welcome

harbo....... Nice to have you on board. Sounds like you've been pretty busy with changes, add-ons and design mods. I second the motion to see some photos of the beast. I hope you'll enjoy the site and the people who make it interesting, informative and fun.

Welcome Harbo,

Sounds like a right fine machine you got there. Would love to see a pic of the single headlight too.

It has a better light than the standard and it's certainly different!

Harbo,
It's certainly important to improve forward illumination.

Honestly, at first glance i didn't like the headlight. By the time I got to the Fourth pic, it's retro look grew on me, as it does match the case shape of the speedo and tach. Who makes it?

Kudos on the extremely tasteful custom paint job.:bch:

Hondax,

I must confess that I can't take credit (or blame) for the choice of headlamp, or paint job, as they were both present when I bought the bike.

I am still undecided on the light but my other half really likes it as the bike has similar shapes, as you noted about the clocks.
