I hope you´ll like.

 

 I made the graphic design and the paint job is being done at Aerodiseño, by the guy who painted Fernando Alonso helmets during several years:

Wow, that's sick as f**k Dani, well done! And it seems to perfectly fit with the blue frame, too.

 Thanks bro!

 

 This was the idea: to use same color of the frame and wheels (Gun Smoke MBM3 - Matt Blue Metallis 3 - 0960), but we had a problem to use the official colour for the graphics because currently this paint is only produced in acrylic version (ecollogical reasons, you know)... but the painter told me that for that kind of artwork he prefers urethane paint (he uses airbrush). So he had to match the colour freestyle... risky way you would think... even a friend of mine told me that it would be very hard, because some time ago he ordered the same task in a Yamaha workshop to paint some parts of his bike in this colour and it was almost impossible to reproduce that bloody color and they needed a lot of time...

but I know the skills of that painter of Aerdiseño and I knew that he´s awesome in his job, in fact and he only needed 5 minutes to get a perfect testing colour... he´s a beast!

 

A couple of days ago I replaced the old transmission kit... some pics:

After:

Supersprox Rear Sprocket + D.I.D. Z VMX 530

 

+ Renthal Ultralight Front Sprocket

 

This weekend I´ll clean the bike... I swear

Yeah, I agree, the original blue colour is impossible to replicate and even Yamaha doesn't divulgate the correct color code to its retailers. Good that the final result... went so good. [emoji14]

 

I'm a bit suspicious about the golden sprocket, but it's just a personal aesthetic opinion.

Don´t worry we all can´t like same things... But we both love the f***ng Angel Eyes, don´t ya?

Hi mates,

 

 Today is the day. This evening I´ll pick up the beast with the new exhausts...

 

 A small preview:

[TorqueMaster]

Awesome, Dani! We want a video of this little things shouting and spitting flames! 

[Miura]

You´re right man... it spits bloody fire and sounds really awesome...

 

I have one short teaser, but the numberplate is visible and I don´t want to show it, hahahha... I´ll show you a video soon.

 

Now I think that there´s too much gap between the mufflers and the carbon heat shield... So I´ll have to improve it in the future

It's not necessary quoting the previous message.

[Miura]

 Awesome sound... tooooo brutal... 

 

P.S.: I need dB Killers...
