That's really nice

You want to get some crash bungs on it though, worth their weight.

Very neat. Did you spray bodywork yourself? Footrest hangers look much better satin black. I must get round to painting ones on the trike over winter.

As on the other site great looking bike and price for paintjob as very very good. I was quoted around £500 for my one around London.

I would love to do the tank, seat cowl, front mud-guard and front cowl for round 300 but can not find anyone.

The bike looks great. Glad more people are building bikes on a low budget and getting great looking results..... Well done.

Ps happy to pass on paint details. I am more than happy with my metal flake paint job. I can also get decals cut to order to.
