Hi jethro,the fairing in question came off a Gpz 500S liked the look at the time.Had to lower it on the mounting point to get it to line up with the lines on the tank,Its lying on the shelf in the shed now!!!

Sure thing vassilis,got a frantic in the shed!!!,kids use it mostly,the roads up on the isle of lewis require it.Spend most of the time dodging potholes,lumps of peatbog and sheep

Here u go Jethro,I believe you are right,wanted Honda cb1100r type but could only find that one,still not finished though(but then they never are).

How it was,How it is !!

Nae problem Roadhouse,just let me know if u need it and we'll sort summat out.Its no goin anywhere but the wife will be p***ed to see it go!.

Nae probs guys n gal,ive sent an e mail to some mob in port glasgow that do the evil deed(coz am at work getting flung about on a supply ship)home in 2 weeks we'll see what happens

Anybody out there in raptor land know of a good nickel plating company in the UK ???,wanna get the frame and swing-arm done,wife don't know about it yet but will talk er round,JAS

Got a DiD carbon can with a 2 1/2 inch inlet i fink lyin in the shed,took it off the wifes 400 bandit as it was attractin all sorts of unwanted attention if that might help you in your apocalyptic quest....
made all sorts of ears bleed when bandido was at 15000 revs, JAS

dunno dizzy,but was up at the ravin mad rally in orkney a few years ago and did'nt see much apart from the bar and tent,wicked fun though and the local skullsplitter ale was aptly named...

Why not mix up the whole lot and serve it up warm like those mad orcadians do,its called cog and it fair strips your insides out!
