its all coming together now. my mate had some issues with the paint on the battery box so im still waiting for that so i can fit it and sort out my wiring, the engine is in but the right hand cover needs swapping over to the painted one, otherwise its in for good. i filed up the edges of the upper fins. just need to polish them up a bit... tyres still not fitted to new wheels. im trying to find innertubes and rim tapes first. cannot wait to ride it!!!!

the engine looks pretty good from a quick check over. i took the rocker box off and cam journals seem good. just the splines on the output shaft are a bit worn so i might have to replace the shaft but all in good time...

i finally got the battery box back from my mate, poor bastard had a right pig of a job, he had to paint it 3 times due to this and that. when i offered it up i was pretty gutted to see it stands out as being loads lighter but with less contrast in the lace.

learning to pinstripe but its hard so doodled a tiki on my tool cab.

so i took the battery box out again and joe then did another few coats of tinted laquer to tone it down so we are hoping it fixes it.
heatwrapped the header pipe and threw on the mega to see if it works. i bought a load more tube so i may try a different exhaust set up and see what i come up with and if i prefer it. for now though i think its looking pretty badass.
me and joe threw the whitewalls on the bike after loads of cleaning. so happy i chose to pay the extra for them, they really set the bike off i think. shame maxxis coat them in that evil blue crap, its a total prick to remove and its still not all gone.

just need to shake this darn bug so i can get stuck in and get it finished up.
