Wish I could say they were my fab skills .but all the fab work is from one off welding and engineering.
 
Bike now stripped down ready for powder coating tomorrow. Always start to feel excited at this stage of a build .

This thing looks brilliant! What I wanted to do with mine (before I sold it)!

Only gripe is that the front fender looks a bit odd as a hugger, maybe a bigger high fender would match the scrambler look and high rear fender better?

At first glance I thought the shadow from the bars was 2 diagonal stripes. Would look pretty cool (if the tank wasn't already painted ;D )
 
Thanks advco I did think about having mudguard higher up. but was struggling to work out how to mount it .an make it look tidy .
