It looks quite neat, but I would have removed the lower front mudguard - it makes the front wheel lock up in thick mud anyway. I recon this is a custom paint job. Next thing you'll see some Red Bull branded 800's going around! Cool

I don't like it.

Why would someone want their bike to look like and old F650Dakar? It has been done. If I am going to change the look of my bike I would want it to look like no other bike. Not a copy of something that has been done already.

Just my 2c, flame away Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

As I understand it, the guy bought it brand new like that.
I think it looks fresh and bright. Maybe I will agree with Marnus about the front mud guard once I get to ride the 800, but it must be something like this one. 800GS Colours Icon_twisted

Deon would you like to have these colours. I will try and organise for us. 800GS Colours Icon_study
