I've almost finished my latest project, just waiting for an 810 engine I'm getting done and a marving exhaust to arrive, but I have got it on the road.
I'm not good a doing a running thread, but here are before and after pics, with paintwork by Flying Tiger, which is awesome.

Extremely nice, the paint looks spot on. It reminds me abit of my old Z750L3. Well done Mate.

Thanks for all the positive comments, I'll be even happier when I get the recon engine and new exhaust on it.
I had a nightmare moment in the garage yesterday, I dropped a plug on my mates bike tank and chipped it, I felt really bad, but made myself feel better by thinking at least it wasn't this bike!!
