looks good like how it all flows cleanly

F-n hot... Can we get the wallet out now and add a few CF bits (frame guards and reservoir) ?

I'd even go with the black w/ white graphic fork guards.

Next: Powder coat the foot levers ?

That bike just begs "Ride me ! Ride me ! Ride me !" ...like She Wolf's, but different.

Thanks X-Racer, I like the powder coated foot lever idea. I will have to look into that.

looks good... glad to see another one with a full front fender!

Thanks........ I hate to admit it but I actually like the front fender, I had plans of swapping it out with an Acerbis fender but the big beak has grown on me. I plan on painting that this weekend, will post the pics when I finish.

Might steel this concept if you don't mind.....

You are more than welcome to use any design you see on my WReX............ I dont mind sharing great ideas. Thanks for the comments.

Looks good...especially the tail painted that way. I like the stock front fender too

Thanks!! I ride in the rain too much here in the Pacific Northwest to have a small front fender.

my fenders been cut for more aerodynamics i ride road more than anything, before i noticed how much it shaked and wobbled in the wind at 75mph +

awesome looking bro!!

whats wrong with alot of rain spray off the front tire flying back at you soaking the bike and your shirt along with your helmet cause I cut my fender too short??

yea, kinda wish it didnt rain as sparatic here too! but its worth it when the bikes sitting still

Thanks man......... I have seen the Acerbis sumo fender here on someone's X and it looked flippin awesome.......maybe I will get it and just swap them out when the weather turns nasty.

To my amazement I open up the forum and see my little "WReX" sitting so proudly on the front page.......I feel like I should have a speech prepared.

As promised.......let me know what you think.

Hole shit this looks good!!! Everything you've done to it look's great! Good choice for a header pic too

looks pretty good, wonder how it would look with just that single black strip going down the center of the front fender coming to a point?

great idea though, it really breaks up that solid blue

Thank you....I am pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Thanks, you know I was thinking the same thing.........I think I might keep it like this for awhile and maybe try and get another stocker and paint it just with the stripe down the middle.

**UPDATE**
Just wanted to share some of the new "farkles" that I added recently:
Changed the blue to white
Under bar mirrors
Evotech skid plate
Zeta hand guards w/ turn signals
KYB fork protectors

I will take some pics once the rain stops...............

Great looking X ...

Look forward to seeing the White & Black ..... did you paint over the blue with white ?? or start new with white body panels ??

Well here is the new and improved WReX.............
Brand new fresh from the dealer:


Now:

Very nice...very clean and stylish.

Wow truly impressed Picasso.
Looks a bit like the G450 X from BMW now IMHO.
Nicely done. I like the matte black on the muffler guard

Thanks...... I did paint over the blue......didnt want to spend $300 to get new panels. We'll see how well it holds up.

Thanks, I was wanting it to look unique. The blue and black was nice but I am really happy with the white now.

looks great! kinda makes me wanna go all white............

Thanks......... I was never really happy with the blue and black, white is definitely the way to go!!! One of these days I would really like to get all black panels and switch back and forth between black and white. Maybe Santa will hook me up.
