 |  Strange how it looks absolutely fine with mixed-up bodywork on.  Can't imagine any other bike you could do that with without it looking crap.

				| PS..... 
 I'm not saying it does n't look good in its Lucky strike get up, that's one of my favourite paint schemes but there is something really nice about the mix & match of its track day clothes. Someone back me up......please

				| I hadn't realised the track-day set up was a mis-match until I read this, obvious now though. 
 As the fairing and tail-piece match it sort of throws you.  I generally like RGVs in blue and white, and I think some of the best colour scheme's didn't come to the UK. blue white and black being one of them on the earlier models.
