| Minichamps guys - info for you re. 999s Got my Haga and Haslam 999s today - they look great  Some handy hints for you, as they're quite a bit different to the 996/998s: When you unpack the bike from it's box, keep an eye out for a small black plastic part. On one of my bikes, I could see a loose bit as I unpacked it. It turned out to be the thumb brake that had come off. It's a delicate part, and as the fairing rattles in the box during transit, it's likely to snap it off. A touch of superglue is all it needs to put it back, so watch out for it! Both Haslam and Haga's bikes have the thumb brake. The fairing is in two pieces - the belly pan and the rest. All of it detaches so you can see the complete bike. A nice touch, even the back of the clocks has detail  To fit all the fairing parts for display, take your time. It's quite fiddly. You need to get the top fairing in place, then squeeze the bottom edges together in order to clip the belly pan into place. I was dead scared I was going to snap something off, but I got there in the end. Hope that helps   |
