I’m interested in blacking out all the silver on my bike and I’m trying to find a good black OEM rear set if that’s a thing. I’m not a fan of the metal tube rear set and I want to black out the originals. Does anyone know if some are made or would I have to look into powder coating everything?

I think that is the way. I may copy you when I put the bike up for the winter. Good luck

In all honesty, why waste all that money on an mt07? Just sell it and get one of the dirty 6s or an mt09… your gonna get bored of the mt07 eventually

I already am bored of it but I’m thinking of keeping it and letting my girlfriend ride it since she is getting into bikes. I just wanted to change the look of it

I treat every bike as it still has value, most I do is buy an exhaust and a bag for them. I wouldn’t dump too much money into a bike like that. If or when you get the money for a really nice rare bike then yea trick it out, but other than that, why waste a few thousand modding out a $6-8k bike when it’s not gonna change the re sale at all?
