    A work of art! Congratulations.
    One thing is for sure: the bike doesn't handle as well with the fairing on.

      Oh yeah, a budget, rat bike resto. Just get the bike running. Don't bother washing or cleaning it. Just ride it. I've thought of that. Never happens. And I've had 5 attempts.

        Yay! It goes!! After 2 years, it started instantly, engine is quiet, first 2 gears work, haven't tried any more yet. Fuel was ****ing out overflows while running, so packed it up to Greg T for a carb tickle up. Should get it back in a few days. I'm pretty happy with how it's all turned out, and can't wait to ride it.
