It's been spoiled by fitting a GSXR body... if it's a RGV500 rep, why not make it look like one at least.

It just looks wrong...


This looks right...

I have a Marlboro RZV500R in the back of the Garage, The RVZ is a jap import version of the RD with an Ally Frame, tank and some magnesium bits.
The bike is totally standard and still has the original (restricted) pipes on it, one day i'll treat it to a set of Jolly Moto's or Nikons to see what it should sound like
