    Hi Spiros, great progress of a great bike. Attached is a photo of a full size K0 that I did a paint restoration on for a client a few years ago for your reference. This had the color painted headlight mounting as well as painted headlight. The later K1 had the chromed mounting and a black headlight. The reference above referring to the airbox is also correct.

    1 attached image. Click to enlarge.

    Thanks my friend @rory! This is a wonderful restoration! Wonderful details as well! I am converging towards silver on my model.

    Saddle almost ready...

    A couple of ejector pin marks on the grab rubber "handle", not too easy to remove...

    Looks really great already, Spiros @fiveten
    Once the ejector pins are gone it is a perfect saddle.

    Wow, Spiros @fiveten, great exhausts and seat, I can see there’s a lot more detail in this scale compared to the 1/12 models I’m used to.
