After getting a digital camera at last, managed to take a couple of pix and post them up.

I gave her a good clean today and will be adding a new nose cone (large vent type), bellypan with replica stickers attached very soon.

And may be getting the wheels done black when funds are available.

Hope you like...

I shaped the corse guards i had. Use Masking tape to mark where the top of the right guard meets the exhaust guard and then cut the heel guard,

Looks the biz

Lovely, just lovely ...

(A little window cleaner will remove that film on the inside of the high beam next time you have it apart.)

I eneded up trimming the exhaust heat shield and left the foot shield alone

Matthew, after spending that much on your bike, just buy the proper exhaust guard! No bodging allowed!

Blooming lovely Matt - and thanks for the words re the 955 conversion...you've certainly got me thinking......

Hi Matt, Bike looks well mate. If you do not want to cut down your heel guard I think I have got one somewhere that is already cut to fit with the longer exhaust heat shield that you have. If I can find it in the depths of my bits and bobs you are welcome to it.
Drop me an email if you want it and I'll try and find it next time I am over at the unit.
