Remember it’s a “parts” bike!

Picked up a tank, tail and side covers for cheap today. Will use them on the resto with the intention of painting a set in diamond sky blue "one day" ;) I just chucked the tank and tail on this build to see what the dark green looked like.

The Green works and looks in pretty good shape for cheap

There are a couple of things that are less than perfect, but I'm pretty sure a bit of polish and it will look pretty good. I'm going to put it on the other bike tomorrow. Still going between satin black, dark metallic blue or dark metallic green on this one. The green does look pretty good though - with stripes in öhlins yellow it might look pretty decent :)

Man i thought this was the finished paint work for a second and i really liked the classic colours on the fresh modern bike but they will also look awesome on the other bike.

Spent some time on the electrics today. Got everything under the seat but still need to find somewhere for the RFID receiver - no more room where I originally planned to put it. Just need to wire up the headlight relay tomorrow and I can move up to the coils and cockpit.
