zed as a purely hypothetical question...what sort of money would it take for you to part with the bike?

absolutely everything has its price and as far as i am concerned i will never, ever in all my life be able to produce a bike like this - not many could. The only way i would ever have a machine like this is to buy one.

you dont actually need 2 kidneys do you :D

Haven't looked at this thread for a while.

Awesome engineering and fabrication skills - I too am really looking forward to seeing this for real.

Well! There are still lots of little jobs pending that i haven't had time to do lately ( headlight mount etc ) but getting the paint on is the last job that will make the BIG difference and determine the finished look. Just hope it turns out ok .

After much indecision i've let popular opinion decide that it should indeed be based on kawa'ish green and yellow in a race style with styling cues taken from std paint scheme. Sure you lads will soon let me know if i've got it right or not :?: :)

Basis of turbo project is coming together. Expect a new thread starting in the next few weeks if all the bits turn up from around the country. Now i've got the hang of this photobucket lark i'll go into more detail from the dry build instead of showing up after main works been done :roll:
