I made an aluminum turn signal/license plate holder to replace the old one which was made out of perforated metal. The signal lights are also installed and they work great.
I attached the front fairing stabilizer and windscreen. The front end is pretty much done. I just have to fix a wire loom and that's it. I took a picture of it in the garage at 12:45 am
I am kinda mad that the rear fairing and rear seat covers are slightly different colours. The paint match is a shade off. Ah well.
There wasn't much I could do about the muffler - it was pretty shoddy. And the paint is supposed to look like a big red Lucky Strike dot laid across the middle of the bike - but the Chinese fairings have the wrong angles on their paint job so the dot looks a little wonky.... but the effect is still there.
I need to recover the seat and tune the motor and then it goes up for sale.
Overall I am happy with how it turned out and wish I could keep it. I really like the Lucky Strike theme. Maybe I will get to do another in the future.
