Pentax & lens are still in the shop. About $750 to repair both... just hope they work well afterward. Looking to upgrade when the K20D is released and will prolly keep the K10D as a backup/spare/extra/whatever.

I knew someone was going to do it sooner or later !!!

I was waiting... that's where the name came from! :yahoo:

...Betty got racing stripes tonight! :assassin:

No pictures yet, I'll post up tomorrow when I have some daylight to show off the lines.

Hey TWN... you get that G2 on yet? First impressions?

 

[twowheelnut]

Nope. Never mess with a bike just before a major ride, unless you are named skooterG. So it is written.

Like I said, Betty got Racing Stripes:

And here are a couple shots from the inagural ride...

From the cockpit and...

To the rear!

I didn't really care for those racin' stripes on the '06 or '07 colors, but breaking up the solid black really works.

Me likey!

 

[sl_1300]

I'm assuming those racing stripes are a Yamaha accessory ??? If so how much??

Cool stripes Duff!

I have some small Yamaha style hash marks on the 05. I'll post pix later.

 

[FJRMGM]

those stripes do look good on that all black bike.

Have fun and just keep on ridin'....

 

[sl_1300]

wfooshee, thanks for the link on the stripes, those are a good value, I expected a much higher price.

I like the look better on the 08 than on the previous years !!!

Here it is....

OK the hash marks are just above the front turn signals.

Nice look. I always wondered what I could do to dress up my 05. Guess I'll just have to be happy with dressing up my 08!

Duffster, those stripes are SO MONEY! VERY nice.

Okay. Link for the hash marks? Please say they're available to the masses.

Thanks.

Hmmmm....

I hate to say this but the previous owner put them on. He was going to remove them for me and I said NO! I have no clue where he got them.

Now the quest to locate these, is on...

I'll help too.

You guess you have to be happy...???

Your 08 ROCKS!!! That is AWESOME!! The stripes are cool, you have momentum going for goodies.

If I would have known you had that in the garage before we arranged shipping of parts, I would have made the trip up there to go for a spin!

Ride Safe.
