Have you finished the airbox yet ?
How far away from final paint are you ?

Mat,
painting is finished, I am applying all decals (stickers) now. I need to prepare the foam model of the airbox next for making molds. Bike is finished if I use single pod filters-
Will post pictures in the next days of the finished bike. It turned out better than I dreamed of.

Next on the list is to assemble my NS400R after a engine rebuild, then get the bodywork of my TZR250 3XV painted in original design, a complete grounds-up restoration of my RD350 YPVS, and then a SUZUKI GT750 based cafe racer which will include frame modification, custom pipes etc.

I am not sure if my average expected lifetime allows for all of these to complete!

I think the big Antena 3 logo on the side is to low at that front and the Michelin Man on the front fender is not straight ............ just joking Wolfgang that bike is stunning the quality and detail are 2nd to none

you should be a motorcycle design engineer............

MC,
thanks.
In fact the MICHELIN and BETA logos at the bottom should be lower at the front...all stickers hould be parallel to each other!
I will change them right away.
