Radical, Retro & Red

Post by discofirecat » Sat Jun 23, 2012 11:06 am

Hi fellas, the time has come to share my MT350 with you and see what you think. I am already anticipating a degree of upset from the purists out there, but I think it's a pretty cool ride.

You've done a good job there looks nice and balanced! Might not be everybody's taste but then it's not their bike. :)
Nice to see some good personalisation happening.

Yep Still can tell that its an MT. Looks like the sort of thing CCM might of done with a boat load of bits from their stores. I like it. ;)

Really like it, would be interested to see what you did with the headlight and clocks, as this is the only thing that I don't like about the original MT. I've always thought a round headlight would look better that the 'Robot cyclops'.

I like it, I wouldn't buy it or build one. But it does look good.

Great looking bike , nice job

I dont think theres too many purists around , no two MTs are identical , red, white , blue, black, pink, and every possible shade of green :mrgreen: , as long as its what you want it to be, thats all that matters in my book :)
