It will probably have cost him not far off the asking price to build it though trigger!

He's probably making a loss on it

It's all down to waiting for others to supply the last few remaining parts that I require. Namely a replica fuel cap, and a magneto. Guy Coulon of Tech 3 fame is supposedly making them for me, but once the GP season starts there is little hope of getting anything until the end of the season. Meanwhile I have another option for the fuel cap, but again it's taking its time to materialise. Once I've got my hands on one I can get the bike painted - candy topaz orange of course. I've got an Electrex World self generating ignition system on at the moment, but its just a fraction too wide and fouls the fairing. The only other part I need is the front fender, which I'm currently part way through making.
Think I've got a smaller sized image of my road bike, affectionally known as K9
Cheers
Eric

Yes I have had a few let downs from suppliers along the way, the phrase "suppliers are liars" is too often true, hope it's not too long until you receive your bits, I'm looking forward to seeing the end result.
I get my fairing/tank/seat unit back from the painter tomorrow, can't wait to see it all (hoping not to be disappointed!!), I'll post pics tomorrow.
K9 certainly looks the part, what jets have you used to suit the pods and 4 into 1?, I need to re-jet my PD's if I can't bring myself to buy the CR's.

Grr!, talking about let downs, the painter texted me an hour before I was due to pick up the "completed" job saying that he couldn't do the "HONDA" decals, luckily a mate of mine has a printer/cutter he is making them for me so I can turn up at the painters with them tomorrow.
