    @chinesegeorge Thanks George, the color is Metallic Gold, not the titanium it was a tough choice, the metallic is pretty expensive but I have had good luck with it in the past so I gave it a try. The can warns that it much be painted over gloss black and it works beautifully

    You made a big improvement on those exhausts, Cricket @bikequeen
    The engineers of Pocher definitely could have spent more work on this part to make it fit better.

    @fiveten @jdtruby @johnb thanks guys, I’m not 100% happy with it but it will do, hopefully most of it will be cover, but I dont intent to leave the fairings/cowlings on this bike. BUt looking at the engine assembly with the pipes on it….I will definitely need a bigger kitchen table as this thing progresses πŸ™‚

    Lol, and in the true style of a lady, she's already asking for a bigger table!
    If it helps, there's no table big enough, when it comes to models? Mine is 10' long and 2' wide, and it's full of junk and builds!
    Excellent work on that exhaust @cricket.
    I can see why you were unhappy with it.
    You've also got me playing with bikes 😲
    I'll try and get some pictures together, when I stop gluing and painting πŸ˜‰

    Well…did several sub assemblies and had to cutaway the air filter to make it look more real :). Not my idea, I stole from the guy in got the aftermarket stuff from, Paul Koo πŸ™‚

    @coondog! Thanks Matt, the fuel tank will hide them and the throttle body work but I hope to leave it off. Will see soon πŸ™‚
