    I should have the bike in a few days, John (@johnb), but it is smaller than your model, and definitely on the other end of the power spectrum.

    Cockpit display mounted on the Honda. The decal does not give that much information though.

    Looking good, @johnb, I expect the display will light up when you start the engine.

    After a holiday break, it was time to get back to the bench again. The plastic parts for the covers were all white already so I could make use of that for the white areas and leave them untouched, I still decided to prime them at first. I think this will give a more uniform result in the end with the various colors required for this scheme.

    All those cool body parts. When painted, they are going to really set this off. Everything looks wonderful so far John (@johnb).

    Good idea to prime everything in order to get an uniform finish, @johnb.
