pair of late model forks and a rear sub frame to get jiggy with (so I can carry on riding mine now that it has MOT - no mirrors :roll: )

It's not how fast you ride, it's how you ride fast.
Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people appear
bright until you hear them speak.

I like :) . Looks promising, be interested to see what you have for the front end bodywork. Often toyed with the idea of changing the seat unit & rear plastics out, but thought that costs would end up being too prohibitive. Are you doing the majority yourself?

Hi
Front end is off the same bike as the rear(o5 r1).All the fabrication work is been done by someone else,as i aint no good at alu welding etc.... :lol:
The assembly,wiring,bodywork and other bits and pieces will be done by me.Gotta say a thankyou to the brummie mafia(including the rugby faction)for their help in getting me this far and hopefully to the end.
all the best
