Hello Ade,
On this pic it looks as if the seat is way too long, could be the camera angle.

Hi Wolfgang,

Its a little longer than normal but will look good once the exhausts are in place and the fairings are in place.

I am going to paint it in NSR colours and these rear seat units were slightly longer!

Lets wait and see - Can always shorten it if necessary

Thanks

Ade

Hi, Yes it will have a Day Time MOT or could even have a full one if i decide to fit all of the lights and indicators etc.

Thanks

A bit of time since i last updated the thread but progress has been made.

The rear self supported seat unit has been fitted correctly now and secured in position with the correct bolts.

The fairings have been mocked up and look good - Only tried 3 sets and a set i had all along looked the best in the end.

The bike has had a complete bespoke re-wire and in the end i fitted a Translogic dash that i had and saved the SPA one that was fitted for my project bike i am doing next. I also went without the lights as it looks much better but has a horn and the wiring is in place if lights would be required in the future.

The top exhausts are now in position along with the number plate bracket.

Chains is fitted and also the Hydraulic clutch which is really light.

Its had oil and water put in it, without any leaks, and is ready for the first start up which i will do once the fairings have been painted and it is returned back to me, but at the moment i am still unsure what scheme to do it in!
Thinking either Marlboro or the Red Bull, but all thoughts would be appreciated.

The bike will be put up for sale ASAP - Firstly on the forum and then through other channels - So if you have an interest let me know and you can choose you own colour scheme!

Any one know where all the photos of the bike have disappeared to?

Many Thanks

Ade

Hi.
The pics you refer to where hosted at //s26.postimg.org
For some reason the postimg.org domain name is no more available.
But your pics are still available at //s26.postimg.cc
So if you replace "org" with "cc" in the references of your pics, you will make them appear again.
