    <fx: spits out fibreglass offcut>

    Roight. I've been in t'garage for the last few days, and
    have only just emerged to breath some real air instead
    of fibreglass and swarf.

    I'm quite proud with my efforts, but I think it really
    needs to all be the same colour...

    Christ what a shed.

    Akkshirley it's not too bad, but why didn't you continue the seat unit
    under the tank?

    I thought it both tasteful and appropriate ;-)

    You should have seen it "before" - it was lovely.
    Then it got torpedoed by a orange bibbed numpty.
    Cos the seat unit started to splay outwards but the rest
    of the bike doesn't, so it had to go.

    It's just like Domenec's Thunderace, only more crap.

    Silver, I think.
    Whatever is cheapest in B&Q when I get there!

    Looks a million times better than the bodywork from a stock Ducati of
    the same era.

    I quite like the old-school SS fairing and it's certainly
    better than the later SSie jelly-mould fairing.

    The belly pan is just about finished, the seat now needs
    painting and the fairing has been fibreglassed where needed
    so will be painted next. Another week and it should be done.

    I see someone has already picked you up on late replies though.
