    Nice looking bike, We've got chambers & cans, rear upper single seat & step kit from Tyga ready to go as soon as the barrels are done but debating as to wether to get the rest of Tyga fairings & paint them og get one of the Chinese fairing sets, how well did your fairings fit ?

    Having bought the material, I now have to wait for the silly season to pass, so I can get a clear run at this project.
    Photos will be taken as I go.

    Started to make the shift and brake levers out of 6 x 40mm aluminum. Marked out and pilot drilled holes. Started to tap the holes for the linkage plate to mount to the levers. They marked so I can adjust the position before I install the threaded rod.
