Nearly there. Still need to sort out the front brakes, run a clutch cable and tidy a few wires, bit very close to completion!
Tank is coming back from paint next week, and it should all be sorted by then.

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Given a few weeks after the birth of their new baby, I bet Mr T will be wishing it was a baby bike that had been delivered. I know bikes give all of us sleepless nights at times but at least you can lock the bikes away in the shed and ignore them for days, if not weeks, something you can't do with human babies, according to Social Services. ;) ;) ;)Looking very nice Mr T. Has the baby arrived yet ?

Bikes looking good. Where abouts have you mounted the battery?It's mounted to the frame, just in front of the pivot for the swingarm.

Like the bracket. Was that an off the shelf item?

No, I had Ryan at RunRiot cycles fab it for me. He has the cad/cam files ready to go for a few battery sizes, so if you're interested I'd give him a buzz. You can find them on Facebook.Bikes looking good. Where abouts have you mounted the battery?It's mounted to the frame, just in front of the pivot for the swingarm.

No doubt Enzo is in good hands!
Give him few years and he will need bike too!
My son is turning 7 this week, his favorite pastime is drilling holes in bris blocks in our garage!

Lifechanging to be a dad. The bike looking very good too.
Ps don't be too offended if Enzo follows suit of what my first lad did on his first shed visit, and enjoy the tinkly sound of chucking bolts around etc.you have been warned.

That tank looks fantastic. 8) Love a bit of pinstriping. Black art these days.Yeah, had a time trying to find a painter that wouldn't just put vinyl decals on. If I'm gonna pay for it, I wanted the real deal.

I think the results look like they speak for themselves. Who did it for you?A guy named Jack from Peanutbutter Customs out of Watford. He's been an absolute legend helping me get the exact look I was going for. I'd definitely recommend him. www.peanutbuttercustoms.com

That tank looks awesome. Are you bothering with sidepanels or will it spoil the look?I'm keeping them off - I wanted that triangle clear to give the bike a lighter look to it.

What kind of air filters are those?
It looks great!

They're K&N pods. I've read that as far as pod filters go, they're the best you can get, so I figured I'd give myself the best chance I could at getting it tuned up right.(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160222/f2f7cfa7ee975556677e6b9c48715006.jpg)

Nice!I'm going to wait a while to see how the pods work out. If I can't get them running right then I'll put the airbox back on, but if they work it'll be up for grabs!

My bike worked on pods but I def need like to run original airbox.
