Tank

Finally got hold of a tank, its also from a GSX. a lick of paint to keep the rust at bay.
I'll have to cut off and move the mounts on the frame as the tank is longer than the original.
And of course the seat will need chopping down and re foaming.

Oh dash

So I got the holes drilled(a little wonkie but not so bad) bit of sanding and quick blast with the spray paint.
Wired up the lights; a little fiddlie but all sorted and very minimalist.

working in the rain

Hey hey,
So got a nice mud guard from a GSX which is pretty tight but it fits ok. Its a little ropie round the edges but I think with some TLC I can get it looking sharp.
I also got a new tank. It looks like it'll fit with very minimal mods.
Again, the tank is rough but not beyond saving.
I also purchased some nifty little led bulbs and marked out on the Speedo mount where they'll fit. It does mean no indicator lights on the dash but I can live without them. Only problem my drill won't make a hole so I'll have to wait and get hold of a pillar drill. The dash on this bike should now look pretty swish.
