Fantastic job so far! I appreciate you sticking to a no compromise build, even if it's taking longer than originally planned.
Everything seems well thought out (or corrected afterwards :) ). 

Well done, I await the next update!

 have had to "dig deep" in my enthusiasm bucket this weekend as the temp has hit an all time low (for here in the UK, I know for some of you it's tropical !) last couple of jobs done so the frame is now PC ready :) I put a couple of scallops in the cross tube on the frame for the wiring (originally the loom runs under this tube but now I have lifted the airbox it won't fit). The loom may of just fitted between the tube and the tank but I didn't want to find out it wouldn't fit after everything is painted and powder coated. Also as is common the mounting hole for the kick stand bolt was elongated so the bolt fitted "like a dick in a shirt sleeve" so I have sleeved it to be a much closer fit which has removed about 80% of the slop in the kick stand (the sleeve isn't a sloppy fit, I used a step drill to give the weld somewhere to go). Just need to sort a few brackets and the like and make some blanking plugs for the frame and it will be "off to the powder coater :)
