interesting theme for a paint job, not really familiar with it aside from I know it's a video game, but so far looks sweet.

Artwork and painting are two areas where I've never had much talent, if I ever wanted anything like this I'd be shelling out big bucks for someone else to do it.
 
Paul Junior did a GOW trike (with a bit too much chrome for my liking)

This is the direction I'd be taking

The plate hangs just below the tail light... on the modded inner fender you will see a bracket hanging down on each side with holes, that's the license plate mount. I'm no a big fan of the axle mounted plates... not sure what the laws here in Michigan are on plate location and direction, so I'm keeping it where it is.
 
Well, it's finally done! Paint job, cbr taillamp mod, front fork 2" internal drop with progressive springs and a 1.5" drop in the rear with oem shocks... here are some pics.

Looks awesome, glad to see it come together. What's the info on the tail and plate light?
 
Its basically the cbr mod with my own flare... white led strip light for the license plate light... i made a bracket that also acts as trim around the cbr light to blend it into the fender b.etter
 
Wow, you have some insane skill when it comes to paint work. I really like what you did with the CBR tail light mod, much more polished than my install. If you ever decide to get someone to duplicate the rear fender support I am sure you would have a decent market of buyers here on the forum. I know I would grab one to replace my hack and slash job in a heart beat!

That is a sharp looking Vmax, gives me something to aspire to!
 
Thanks, I really enjoy modding, and I really like the individuality people put into their bikes. Plus I mod on a budget.
 
That is badass!!!! One of these days I will be getting my grim reaper on my faux tank. Looks really cool man really cool!
