Finally got around to taking him in to get the stripes sorted out. At the same time I also got the boot and tank sprayed which was a nice little detail to get sorted.

Rich, I've got to get the engine bay sorted out now as the firewall area is a little bit messed up. Then there's the wiring loom that needs work. Finally got to fit the heater unit and the radio and speaker.

That looks really nice, I was considering using satin black on my tank as well.
I have to admit that I would have had the tank strap painted body colour to make it pop at shows.

What colour are you going to use for your tank Ed?
