Rebuilding a shafty with a cool twist.

[Coolshaft]

The bike is now in an advanced state, The painting phase, and this is the state of it.
The sidepanels are self made with the plan to paint it in a Blue and white Wes Cooley design.
the side covers will have a number in them with a blue area on the bottom.
Race stickers are going to be applied as I am a bit of a sticker johnie



Got one of these from USA,VVV USA$10.76 in postage on packet and charged USA$50.00. postage.
What to do with the afteraction feedback?
Luckily paid very little for the actual item, which is brand new never used, just some small stains on it that came off very easily

This is the dry fit with fairing and mirrors all in place.
All fitting hardware needs to be cut to lenght and paint applied to brackets plus electrics sorted while the panels are being painted.

That should come up nicely me thinks...

Something about those sidecovers just don't feel right to me. The GS is a bike with a lot of round shapes and there you have this huge square with sharp edges.

But other than that - it's the makings of a nice bike.

Wes Cooley in the Castrol 6 hour race.
Idea came from here.
&
trouble getting side covers for this one
and wanting to try something different

I say go for it, should look good going by your quick mock up there, specially with Mr Sheene's number on it

are LHS switch blocks super scarse?

My LHS switchblock is a Yamaha that has been grafted in the wiring loom.
It works OK, but now that i have 2 decent, almost new spare wiring looms, I would like to get the original LHS switch block.
After trolling through 12 pages of 200 listed items on Evilpay with enough stuff to build a bike umpteen times over, not a single one!
