My 2003 Black framed burgundy Sport is one of my favorites, the ride is sublime, and it feels just a tad more planted on high speed sweepers compared to the Red frames. I guess that’s the extra fame bracing of the black frame

Perhaps more the additional 19mm (3/4") wheelbase? (Along with the lower bracing and additional front and rear subframe cross bracing.)

What a fine stable, Guzzimax! Thanks for sharing them with us!

104F felt here in Tejas... 40 degC. I wear the full PPE when I ride, and it really feels like you are being in a casserole....

A better view of the 1299:

You think your dry clutch is loud? This thing’s clutch sounds like The Gunfight at The OK Corral.

Looks very nice. I wonder which paint scheme looks best from multiple perspectives. They all look good depending but which paint scheme looks good from every angle?

Ciao

Thanks Phil..Obviously I like this paint , plus I wanted to make it mine. This picture doesn't do it justice on the fine details..my photography on a smart phone sucks  .....:bier:  Basically every part on the bike is new from top to bottom front to back...a good learning experience for me.

Dont worry, I've noted your photography "tricks" here. Nice mottled light, parked in the middle of a slight dome in the footpath so it reduces the ground clearance in the centre and gives a lower more squatted look and the wooden block under the side stand to hold it more upright so it doesn't extend the suspension for the same reason. I'm no photographer but I know most of the tricks. It's a nice image and the bike looks real good. I've always been interested in how colour influences the impression of a motorcycles shape and form . Motorcycle freelance designer Glen Kerr used to do a regular column in Australian Motorcycle news about 12 or 15 years ago, always interesting.
