    Thanks George, I thought maybe I had overdone the exhaust!

    Morning gents, a small progress update from the weekend. I managed to finish the plumbing, radiator and oil cooler. Also clear coated the bodywork in clear and I think it looks great, but no photo evidence of that. The photo shows a dry fit of the panels before clear. Brake lines to do this week and then final assembly. Take care and thanks for looking.

    Thanks John, Spiros and George. I have really enjoyed this build having not done any modelling for some time, but I have had a lot of fun. I am also looking forward to completing it this week and then deciding what will be next on the bench.

    Thanks for the kind words Joseph. I got very little done this weekend besides the braided brake lines, however I took the opportunity after a breakfast run on my full size Ducati (which I modeled my colour scheme on) to take some photos outside in the sunlight. My photography is dodgy, but thanks for looking.

    Very nice pictures, Rory @Rory
    Those colors are an exact match with your full size bike.
