I got this tool the other day...what a fabulous invention. Its a pipe linisher that goes on an angle grinder. Made my shitty flap disc job look amazing in no time. The photo about was after about a minutes worth of linishing. The tightly curved parts of this sub frame still require more work - I'll buy some of the skinny belts to do that. 10/10 would recommend this tool.

Last photo for today...time to switch off from designing and building stuff. I feel its beer o'clock

Main reason for the fairing is to hide all the ugly, like cables, wiring looms, and digital speedo etc I think it looks pretty tidy. It's not actually installed in these photos, just boogied up with cable ties, etc...but gives a pretty good idea of the look it'll achieve. Paint will tie it all back together when its done. Looks a bit disconnected at the moment.

Choppy choppy...

And sSmallamount of progress with this one, brakes are functional now.

Toolbox arrived from Germany. Fits like a glove!

Im on the fence regarding this. Its cable tied there badly for the purpose of the photo. Obviously I need to cut it up, to get it sitting better etc. The only reason I'm thinking of the fairing is to hide the ugly of my digital speedo. If I could get a small speedo I'd probably shift away from the fearing. 50/50...will give it some absorption time to think about it some more.

Smaller headlight. Its not quite where I want it, but it gives me a starting point. Mini fairing on order too, so this is plan B. The fairing could offer nicer way of hiding an ugly instrument display, so might be a winner. Keeping an open mind until I can play with both ideas.

New small headlight on order, grips, small 1/2 front fearing (but not 100% committed to this idea). Want to lower bike a touch in the front too. But overall I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Yes, I know...pure talent at paint on my phone...but gives you an idea of proportions.

Mandrel bends arrived. Time to experiment and see if my thought process checks out...or not...?

Rear sub frame underway. Waiting on mandrel bends to arrive so I can finish it. I've rerouted a heap of wiring, plus HT leads through the engine covers. Next I'll remake the battery cables, and charging system, to reach the relocated battery underneath. really starting to take shape now.

Flat out working on this thing. 2 days work, and hopefully no one notices what I've done...should look factory.

Pretty happy with this. Battery holder/exhaust brackets.

This aftermarket airbox replacement cover arrived. Purchased from the UK, not a cheap item, in fact an embarrassing amount to spend on something that adds no performance at all...but fuck yes, looks so good. I'll fit it properly and paint to match the motor.
