My Honda DIO!! My very Own Bumblebee, now with Carbon Fiber!

The bike looks neat.

You should consider fitting an aftermarket silencer to the DIO, it makes it sound like an R1 in full flow. It would definitely justify the looks

Hi Cyrus , Just tried some PS'ing on the DIO , did not get an yellow DIO on the net.Hope you like it

A Tiny piece of info. Finally getting the Carbon Fiber Wrap for the Front Panel. Also, Currently running on a temporary Pipercross Filter for Trial Purposes.

Cyrus43 · 29th April 2010, 00:10

HEre it is!!! The Carbon Fiber Front panel. Also, I had my first crash. minimal damage though to both me and the bee

Hey looks sharp man ! Remember seeing a Prosche CGT with the same colour combo.

Couple suggestions.
-Paint the numbers in shape of a V
-Smoke the headlights

Cyrus43 · 30th April 2010, 00:23

I have to get a Second headlight to do the smoking bit. May get it soon. thanks for compliments.

bivin · 30th April 2010, 21:51

the wrap looks neat!! but i guess if you wrap the whole bike it will look BOMB!! and yea, your number plate, err, i mean sticker, is a complete turn off. please get something better ASAP!!
Cheers!!

Cyrus 43 - Happy birthday to Bumblebee

PS : My Dio turns 8 in October ! Been a wonderful 8 years with her

prateekm · 27th June 2010, 19:21

If you don't mind, can you share the price of the carbon fibre? Any plans of replacing the stock headlights with halogens?

BTW, what mileage do you get with your Dio?

Cyrus43 · 9th December 2010, 07:35

I was just going through this thread, and I realized how much I miss her!! :( :( :( The Carbonfibre panel has been changed to a black one as a friend of mine had a tiny crash on it. Wish I had her here with me....
