Just got back from collecting the bike and thought I would share a few pics of the work that has been done.

The bash plate has been made up along with the rear brake pedal, both of which were part of the frame kit but were missing when I collected it.

I wasn't too keen on the seat that came with the kit so I asked for a slightly modified seat that was a bit smaller and fits on by wrapping round the frame tubes at the front and then is secured with a single bolt from the rear that doubles as the mudguard mounting point.

The tank is a similar style to a James tank but has been cut out to sit lower on the frame and is mounted with a single bolt through the centre of the tank.

The exhaust is a narrower gauge stainless pipe that loops round at the front of the frame to get some extra length before meeting the 2 stage silencer which is actually 2 silencers with a space between the two all inside the same case and sits snugly inside the frame to keep the whole thing away from my legs.

Finally, I was going to have an air box made but it really wasn't a practical solution with the space available due to the oil filter, therefore we decided to just have an adapter made that screws onto the back of the carb and points the filter inboard to keep it from being caught by my left leg.

The bike will now be stripped this weekend and will visit the powder coaters next week before its final build. I will post more pics as the build takes place.
