    Thanks Derchef may take you up on that :) anyone able to make an alloy fuel tank?? :)

    OK more pics, camera phone with internal lighting so not great. Now its rolling I will push it outside tomorrow and take some proper photos (yes roll!! )with my slr camera.



    Any way in order as she was built up,
    cleaned up the welds a little they look much better now.

    Thanks guys, yes just the tank placed on. The 1000 tank doesn't fit without mods, not spent much time on that yet next job is going to be throttle bodies and airbox on then look at the tank fitment as it's the next biggie.

    Oh could I ask a favour from you rr4 rr7 owners, can you measure your gear lever linkage bar? The long bar, I have the rr8 lever and bar but it's too long 206mm just wondered if the early one is shorter? From nut to nut please :)
