It has a carbon (or carbon lookylikey) hugger, and the white nose/seat cowl. Tbh, I'm not too bothered if it really is a *true* anniversary one (HPI etc shows it as 100% with no issues in it's life)

Looking forward to actually getting her stripped down, cleaned and back on the road though!!

I saw that and wondered if ted is a groundworker?. all the guys that do contract digging for us at work have a 2 or 3 pronged fork for breaking up the hoggin and lumpy stuff under the tarmac.

after a while you will realise that the folk on here scrutinise the background of photos just as much as any bike detail you post up :thumbup:

Spent the last 2 weeks on and off painting it, installing new lighting and flooring while I was waiting the iminant arrival of the 'storm!!
Sorry. Nice shed Ted. :D

Where would be the best place to start a thread for the dismantle/rebuild of the bike? I don't want to annoy the mods by putting it in the wrong area!!

Either the Projects section
http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=41

or Pimp your ride section
http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=30

IMO projects would be better.
