The bolts are Proti Titanium bolts. I got them from Bellisimoto. I will do a review of these as well as my overall experience with them once I get the bike completed (for now) within the next week. Unfortunately, they only come in gold, blue and titanium. There are other companies that make red bolts but I fell in love with the purplish tint these blue bolts have and had to have them, regardless of price.

Now all you need to do is get some cobalt or ultramarine acrylic paint and do a blue inlay on the seat pad:

Yes. I remember seeing this from you a little while back. Will have to look into that. You had mentioned brake hardware but never got back to me about what specifically you were referring to.
 
Not sure what we were talking about re: brake hardware. Gunny is checking on drilled hex Ti bolts for me, but that's about it.

Blue and white look great, blue and red, not so much. At least not on the body. On the calipers blue shouldn't contrast much with red, but I'd prefer a gunmetal.
 
Here are some updated photos after having installed most of my other items that were waiting to be installed.

And 1 more.

I'm waiting to order my evotech tail tidy so I can go ahead and install my smoked integrated taillight and finally clean up the rear end of the bike. I am also in the process of gathering a list of billet items made by cnc racing that are not offered in blue but they seem to offer the service to custom make whatever items they offer that are not originally made in blue for an additional fee. It will be more cosmetic stuff but nothing drastic. Honestly speaking, I never imagined it would all come together as well as it is while I piece it together. Hopefully I'll be done with it soon so my pockets could forgive me for the ongoing damage I'm causing them. Sorry pockets.

True. For some reason, I like my profile pic with my Evo right behind it. I guess I have to replicate that exact photo.

Thanks for the suggestion. :D

Ha ha, I meant I want to see what the whole bike looks like now :D
 
Ohhhh lol. I assumed you meant my forum profile/avatar.

I'm just updating photos as things change on the bike. As I mentioned, I'd like to at least wait til my tail tidy arrives so I can clean up the rear before I post a photo of the whole bike. As the parts go on, new photos will be posted.

Side note, what is the point of the "thanks" on the comments? Both for handing out as well as receiving them? Always been curious but keep forgetting to ask.

Means different things to different people, but aside from the obvious "thanks" if say someone answers a question that you asked it's also an acknowledgment that someone read your post and likes what you have to say. I use it because it saves having to post a response. If your thanks given to thanks received ratio is greater than one, then your membership fee for the next year here is free. :rolleyes:

In that case, I better start thanking folks since my ratio so far is 0/11, given/received. Damn I'm selfish! lol
 
How did you install the Rizoma grip on the throttle side? Does Rizoma make compatible ones for the Panigale now?

They're not the Rizoma grips. They're the Driven D3 grips. Had no other choice. D3 grips with Rizoma bar ends.

Nice! Now if you could only find blue shock nuts/knobs. :)
Click to expand...

I know. I need those for the top n bottom adjustments but I'm sure no one makes them. However, I will be having a rear shock cover made in blue even though its only offered in red at the moment. I'm not givin up on the fronts just yet.
