It shouldn't need a full paint job though, should it ?
The logo is only under the lacquer, I presume.
I would've thought that it could be removed, maybe tidied up with a single colour coat and then re-lacquered.
Not that I'm a paint expert myself though, but the above sounds logical to me and perhaps wouldn't cost too much.
And the painter will probably still have some paint left with any luck.

Seems a shame to spoil the ship ...........

I can't help but notice you have no side panels fitted, if thats intentional then please excuse me. Shameless plug but I have some nice carbon ones for sale cheap that would look ace against all that shiny black n gold paint.

Hiya mate, which side panels? I have striped all the plastics off except the cowl and mudguards which will be back on soon.

That's a fair point like, I will discuss it with the painter.

In other news I bought a Koso dl-03sr speedo. It lasted all of a day and is now in the bin. Wired up the fuel guage and it fried the whole thing. 120 quid down the pan. Utterly gutted.

I've used the vapor dash in the past on a DT supermoto and that worked great for ages

I'll have to look into that Nottsbiker. The place I bought it from emailed me and said they'll replace it which is nice. However I'm not sure they will when they recieve it as the wires are about 2 inches shorter than when I recieved it as I had to use them to extend the loom on the bike to put my old one back on. I honestly didn't think they would replace it as when I spoke to them on the phone yesterday the guy said they didn't repair them or know what I should do.
I'll look into the vapor dash though in the event that the Koso doesn't get replaced. That said, I've still got a functioning stock one for now so I can still ride.

If you are looking for a new dash, then I still have this for sale.

But good luck getting the Koso one fixed/replaced/refunded.

Thanks for the offer Jonzi but it's not quite the style I'm after for the bike. Aye, fingers crossed it'll get replaced. Still got my oem dash on the bike for the time being so it ain't all bad.

Hi Great job I have just sold my 900 (not sure it was the best idea) but still have a 750 so might be pushed to do it up seeing yours, although really fancy a smaller Duke.
I had a 600 for some years it was just to keep me going whilst I finished a Laverda but it was so good I kept it for a few years.
The 600 I had got a second disc up front and yes it did stop bloody quick but worked fine on one, actually could ride it fairly quickly as it did not get out of shape or road as easily.
Good luck finishing the build Noel
