I didn't think the seat was the problem, I envisaged some white to break the red up and balance the wheels.

Something like this.

Clever Peter - but I'm afraid I'm one of the black seat supporters as well!  Laughing

The white stripe may look good with the black seat too!
Black seat ties in the mirrors, instruments & bars. The white stripe ties in the wheels  Cool

Why not get the standard vfr decals for the fairing? Like this

Now that looks damn good, and I reckon it looks better with the silver/grey wheels, sorry Gus

Hey Gus,

If you decide to keep the old girl, you might want to consider taking a PC fan (3 inch) wiring it in and mounting it on your REG/REC. My first bike was a VFR 750 and I have a soft spot for them. My wife has the 800Fi now because we know we can lower it (she's vertically challenged). Anyway... The PC fan trick has been used by VFR riders along with CBR1100 and 'Blade riders. It just helps keep it cool stuck back there under the fairing...
