hope this works no expert at it

first ideas

tank taking shape

looks good from this angle

tank looks huge from here,it has a nice shape so with some paint and stickers it should look ok!
its only 24L the rest is airbox

Likewise at 1600 x 1200 - still looks like your well on way to making your vision come alive

WOW

some fine sheet metal work going into that project MD

That's definitely different, it looks great from the front. As you say with some paint and stickers it'll look different again

Keep up the good work and do keep us posted,

Cheers,

Chris.

welcome mate, thats very different, i like your ideas, anyone ever seen a supermoto style conversion, there have been blade fairings, single sided swing arms, maybe straight bars at the most, all sports bike/ naked style streetfighters, but this is really different.
