Having a hard time deciding which style to go with, I like them both. I added a few modern touches to both as the bike is new, but what do you all think? Any suggestions welcome, as I can order another set. I want to keep things fairly simple, and leaning towards the left, but it's a lot of white.

The white and red looks the best....really close to Alex Puzar's 1990 bike.

Ya, I think that's what I am going for. I have gp green surrounds made, so I had a bit of the same green put on the left one. The only cobra grip Suzuki tecnosel I could get nos was red, so I think I will try the left out. I am going to end up switching up color though, I know it. I could easily do a straight throw back kit, but I am trying to add a bit of a modern touch as well.

Alex Puzar's Suzuki was a masterpiece!

Thanks guys, I have another take on the graphics coming in...I think it will be the one. I'll share them but its going to be another week.

Got my Floplate in, can't wait for the tecnosel to go on..,just hope I can make it look right on my modern seat. I may have to take it to a professional upholsterer for modification.

Floplate in vented gp green...

It is T. Parker aboard his KTM. Some of the yamahas used vented as well. I just think it is a cool touch, even though my plate/bike is nothing like those in the past.

Had my alum tank powder coated white, tops of the A kit hard anodized and got some throw back orange tecnosel fork graphics with the font like Puzars. This will def help it look more from that era.
