Tyres look good with the letters painted white like that. I'd do that to mine if I wasn't selling it.

Impressive ride. I like the light-up badges too, very neat. What exhaust is that? It looks kinda like the Arrow, but I don't recognize it.

whats the purpose of putting a filter at the end of the crankcase breather hose? Wouldn't it get dirty?

Is that the crankcase breather, or the drain hose on the air filter?
I think the thought is, any oil that normally gathers in the stock (sealed) tube will still flow out, but opening that tube and putting a filter there allows more airflow for more performance.

Hello everyone the exhaust is a Leo Vince and the filter is on the pipe from the air filter the only reason I put it on there is just because it looks different no performance gain though

Very nicely accessorized. Any more info on the light up badges? I searched Ebay UK but no luck.
Cheers,

Thanks for the reply. I've seen that link but it says the listing has ended and there's no option for buying/paying for them.
