    SHE'S ALIVE!!! Massive thanks to Dave v - all running, exhaust on (its loud), seat unit drilled and fitted, tank fitted and fairing and belly pan clipped on to see how it looks but need fitting properly.

    Well pleased. Finally getting there!! Just finished and now buying Dave a well earned pint (or two)

    Other than the cuts for the exhaust, and the gear lever, the fairings were spot on. Brilliant for the money.

    Your welcome mate and thx for the beers. See you tomorrow at 9.

    Those fairings are serious value for money. I'm actually thinking of trying to order just the tail section for my road bike.

    Says the man with the blinged out duke!!

    Mate I can't wait to ride it again.... Rode it round the estate, bar the steering lock which ill sort tomorrow, I forgot how plush and new it feels compared to the r1.

    And even in white (once sprayed it'll look awesome) it looks brilliant. I'm excited to say the least. Been a long time coming....
