Here’s the finished seat and the tank with its modified filler where I have utilised the original Buell filler. The front will be secured with the Monster over the center catch.

This is my last post before the big day, I have been assigned several jobs!  so Merry Christmas to you all!

working my way through the wiring...  Due to LED indicators and lights there are no relays on this build so it's quite simple...I am using a very bright LED for the stand down warning, switched by an angle switch...  it remains to be seen if it tolerates the vibration!

well here it is... not quite finished as Royal Mail has let me down again...   It didn't start first time, in fact I spent MANY hours trying to find why I had no spark...  Turns out it was because the bank angle sensor was faulty...  I managed to bypass it and take it out of the circuit.

It looks "light" and capable waytogo

Especially the frame/tank/seat lines work well.


What are the maintenance requirements for belt drive?
