January 14, 20178 yr Moderator that workshop is way too tidy. bike is looking good, The bike looks complete but now its those niggly bits that take ages to do and you feel nothings moving along
January 14, 20178 yr Author I'm pleased with it generally but still loads to do Remake the rear subframe to allow the lightweight (but large) battery Make the tail unit undertray (not looking forward to that as it will need rolling and bending) Full wiring loom Full exhaust system then the little jobs that takes ages start !!!

September 2, 20177 yr Author I'd love to still follow this but currently it's sat in my workshop with a blanket over it. Been a hectic year with racing season on us. I'm need to get the rear subframe made then it should be full steam ahead
