Fitted an oil cooler on a home made bracket, a fraction of the cost of buying a cooler kit :D

Hello again, been a while, Progress is slowing now as im sorting little fiddly jobs, definately getting there though. Fairing is mounted properly, just need to fibreglass in an instrument panel before paint,
Started plumbing in the nitrous and the air shifter,
Very basic controls on the bars, just need one more button for the NOS.
Ive decided Im going to go for a daytime only MOT, keep the wiring simple and make a loom myself. Im going to get and Igni-tech CDI and start with a GSXR 1100 map, should be similar and they have twin pickups too.
Oh yeah Its only got the spacer plate at the mo, no lockup, as for cam chain, I believe its got a heavy duty one fitted, is there any way to tell?
Looks almost like a bike now, Front mudguard is on my shopping list too :D
