Keep it up! When I read your threads, I keep getting nostalgic for the bike I had to give up when I got married.

Nice one, you really are making a good job of this Syd. I find that it is very easy to get nostalgic about riding motorcycles (and I generally don't do nostalgia!), those were the days!

thanks guys, i know what you mean i had to give up riding several years ago and i really miss my bikes, nostalgia over back to the build
i have bought some after market handlebar grips which look for better than the kit parts so cut the kit ones off and the new ones nearly ready to go on after i have painted the brake levers i have also made another electric box up and wired as well as got the air box finished
the handle bar levers and new grips i don`t know if you can see the difference between the kit parts and the new ones but they do look a lot better and more realistic
the electric box, i don`t know if it is a battery looks like it could be and the air box

Oh wow, this is really great, intricate work Syd. That part looks like an air box to me as well!

Unlucky with the mudguard Syd, but the rest of the bike is looking very nice.

This build looks the business, Syd. Great shame about that pesky front mudguard - anything you can do to save it?

Good trick with the seat (should that be saddle?). The texture will be greatly improved. Keep it up.

A great finish, Syd albeit with that front mudguard issue - I hope you can fix that up to your satisfaction. The mudguard is quite hidden by the front of the fairing though and doesn't detract too much from what is an excellent model IMHO.
