Been stacked lately with work and had a few set backs but here's a few pics of the progress so far, supposed to be racing at Brands on Saturday so need to get my skates on ;)

Brands has been cancelled this weekend due to snow which is just as well as I'm still not ready :( But I have not wasted the opportunity to spend the weekend in the garage!

Bit of checker plate for the seat unit and a bodged catch tank at the back. I will be making a new aluminium battery bay with an incorporated catch tank soon :)

SRAD wheel is a tight squeeze, needed to lose 25mm off the overall width and with the big fat brake hanger I thought this will be easy... WRONG! most of the meat had to be removed from the sprocket carrier to keep the wheel on the centre line 20mm I seem to remember.

SRAD front wheel was much easier to do, just fabbed up 2 spacers.

Adaptor plates for the SRAD calipers were a bit more involved than I had anticipated, still I pleased with the result ;)

Stick coils ahoy!

Temperature sensor tapped into the oil cooler flow banjo bolt.

Bit of authenticity, secondhand from Grumpy

And the bling fairy stopped by in the form of my star sponsor aka Dad :D

Looking to be racing at Mallory on the 8th of April, so plenty of time... WRONG!

@downtheshedsorry missed your comment, I don't sell vinyls I'm afraid.

@Swiss Toniyour too king :)

Had a good day on Sunday sticking and painting, still a bit to do on the tail but getting there.  I'm a bit annoyed that the tank stripes don't line up with the from fairing lines, I get a headache in my eye every time I look at it, once the rest is finished I will probably redo the tank stripes

Next job is mucking out the garage ;)

Been a bit busy with work lately so I've neglected my OSS thread :(

Had a slow start to the season, marred by jetting problems.  I've finally got the jetting done and will test it out at the classic track day at Cadwell on Sunday.

I'll do a more detailed update of the bits I've done later, but here is a pic of where it's at now.
