    Well i tried to get some more done today to fit the side fairings but on inspection I'm missing a couple of tabs from the front bottom of the panels which stop them spreading in the wind! :(

    steve at conquest is on the case so hopefully resolved soon

    So bit of an update to this, I've fitted the fairings that don't have the belly pan brackets to see how the bike will look. Have also wired in the 2 led brake/indicator lights also.

    So final things to finish bike are as follows

    Front mudguard in carbon
    Sp seat cowl made in carbon
    New number plate holder to be fabricated

    Looks great but reckon a black powdercoated subframe would look great and if you do get a carbon SP seat cowl, bear me in mind for the old one :)

    Am sending the seat cowl off to be copied, will ask for it back but they reckon it will get fecked when making the moulds out of it however it will be cheaper and lighter than the oem one

    Subframe is black already????

    The new hanger would have space for 2 led strips that are the brake and indicators and would have slots to be able to change the number plate over to small one after mot :D
