That's looking really good Ted. Don’t be so hard on yourself! 🙂

It's like in the olden days  Gareth when you re-wallpapered a room - all I could see were the poor joints or tears  rather than the overall effect.

Looks good, we’re always our own worst critics

I would walk past that and think that it was really well kept, and as the orthers have said we are our own worst critics, we know the faulty bits so look for them.
I think you have done a grand job.

One thing I've learnt as a decorator is never point out mistakes or bits your not happy with. People very rarely spot them unless highlighted

😄 totally agree mate, I fit kitchens and do some decorating.  Rarely are customers as critical or notice the bits we do.

I think it's a fantastic effort Ted, well done👍. The bike is looking tantalisingly close to finished.

[McCabe-Thiele (Ted)]

It's very close to a shaked down run  in the next few days - only one tank badge to fit.

I need to get it safely off the bike ramp so my brother will pop over to help me get it off the centre stand. Not enough height to ride it off the ramp safely as the sectional door is rather close to my head!

Nice work Ted! Exciting times taking it out for the first run.

A very good job you've made there on the 500/4 and the badges, Ted..

Wow, very shiny.  Looking very good.

[McCabe-Thiele (Ted)]

Not quite as good as this that I found today on tricks/tips!

I'm shocked how much these badges are now.  I've got various ones that I chucked into one of my toolboxes, might have to dig them out.

[McCabe-Thiele (Ted)]

I still have a pair of grade B badges to restore if needed that I bought from a member.

I would give you more than 4/10 maybe 4.25/10, 
only joking, that looks like a really nice job, this sort of stuff is alway so much harder and time consuming than you think.
