no problem Ondrej

mbrand, yes , i've got some work to be done.

first i have to re-do the wiring loom, better connections and a new fuse box.
make a lot km's because of the engine rebuild
then i'll try to make a seat of fiberclass, as seen on the DIY of DCC , put a black upholstery to it.
and remove all the paint from the gastank and polish it

and as promissed.....more pics

this was the first set up

placed new kamikaze guys in it

battery box Mark 1

almost killed my self

after 400km's bouncing kidneys replaced it with some better material

the shape is almost perfect, it will come back in the fiberglass type, that i try to make
