And to think that 80% of the people aren't showing their builds till then. If you're blown away now, in 2 weeks time you'll be nuked.

Colour looks great by the way.

You deserve a special award for perserverance mate , many would have thrown in the towel a long time ago with what you have gone through

Glad you stuck with it though as that has turned out superb , love the colour

I imagine it's even better in the flesh .

Cool bike

Couldn't bring myself to throw in the towel mate, so i was tempted on several occasions

. I know its a cliche but your right It look beautiful in the flesh

Great work

Guff,yeah i had a few peeps who said the colour didn't sound all that

And i enjoyed taking a little cruisedown to the local park yesterday, problem is keeping it claen, the colour shows off even the smallest spec of dust, i'll just have to ride about with a polishing cloth in my pocket

Bike looks stunning. Can't believe the hassle you've had with it but worth it in the end.

Bin those twin-pinchers and throw a set of these bad boys on. (when budget allows)
