November progress
Greetings,
just back from the jolly nice man who is doing this for me:
Plenty of other parts for it in the back ground too.
The one of the reasons to hand it over to an expert was the in part the Lock Stops and these are pretty elegant I think:
Body work, inspired by a Putoline Oil container !! :
These iPhone pictures don't do the paint job justice:
more soon it'll be ready soon I think !!

Greetings
here are Pictures of progress so far, not all good news though as the frame needs to go back for repainting as the coating is very brittle.
more pictures soon

did the last post to set the scene...
So back to the workshop today to check out progress:
It's back from painting and pretty much back together again as it was with a bit more assembly;
New disc for the rear wheel;
Bit of a quandary now as it might as well have new discs at the front also but which ??
The wheel is FZR1000 where there many variations ???
So once the wheels are on its going to an Exhaust building place to be surrounded by Stainless tubery to a certain spec only known to the builder bloke.
regards
Howie
