Something that comes in a big box. I like nice presents wrapped up in a nice big box at Christmas. Always have.

I once got a tyre off my folks for Chrimbo once and demanded that they wrap it up for me so that I could open it on Christmas morning. Nice present and what have you, but it does spoil it a bit when you can tell what it is before you take the wrapping paper off!

A hydraulic ramp - they come in big boxes don't they?

A new radiator and a comfy seat! Wishful thinking though, I don't even have a chimney.

Oh yeah, and a carbon fibre front mudguard that can cope with "warp speed"!

[ozzraptor]

If i didn't have the upgraded mv front guard i would be going for a carbon guard as well, i'm hoping my carbon rear hugger chainguard arrives with santa . Its the first piece of carbon i have put on the bike , and its not just for looks either, should protect from all those nasty stone chips . If not then a carton of beer will do merry xmas

[norrie]

Yeah a box of beer wouldn't go amiss.

[ozzraptor]

I couldnt help myself with another early chrissy present , these have been staring at me for a long time .
Some braking wave rotors and carbon hugger/guard should do it for this year

I should have all parts for cafe racer conversion by Christmas. I know what I'll be doing for that week I'm on break. Putting it all together to see how it looks before I paint. Now I've had a practice run on the tank and front guard I think I'll go for orange flake and black. That way, if I get a repeat of the orange peel finish, it'll look like it's supposed to be like that...lol.
I'll put some pics up when it's done.

A big shout out to Spyke, a member I met the other week who offered to basically let me strip their Xtra for parts so I could get mine over the pits. A truly selfless and generous offer. It didn't work out that I could use them unfortunately so I've moved the cafe build forward. Thanks anyway Spyke, I'm in your debt.

Wishing everyone on here from around the world a very merry Christmas and a Rappy new year
...see what I did there?....
