well back in the cave, bodywork has started to arrive :thumbup: and as my idea of how this bike should end up is a endurance racer on the road i set to and cut a dirty great hole in the new fairing :eek2 ...

still a bit of work before paint but it getting close.. the headlight is from an NC30 and the cowl to hold it in place is small length of cut down drain pipe shaped and bonded to the fairing..

i spent about an hour searching B&Q with the headlight in my hand checking pipes, i must have looked a right wierdo lol.

anyhow after much internet searching the race bikes seemed to have stubby front guards on them.. out came the files and rotary buff and ended up with this.
