    Well still cutting shaping and fitting, the fairing still isnt mounted yet need to add some mounting points and start trimming belly pan as wont clear the headers (removed for pic) but decided to play with photoshop see how the RCV paint would work :) Quite like it not sure yet though may end up with a carbon bike still yet :) rcv4.jpg

    That's looking superb! I think you should stick with colour on this rather than carbon. Carbon would still look stunning though.

    I'd like to see it in the full carbon trim to give it the prototype look. Either way the bike will look great.

    I would paint it but leave large areas of carbon on show as part of the pattern, for example instead of blue just have that part carbon and rest paint

    OK things still moving forward slowly, I have the fairing 90 mock up fitted, I need to remove a bit more from the belly pan then when Im happy will make some brackets to mount out from the frame to support the sides. Im going to support the cowl from inside the fairing by modifying the clock stay like the later bikes and lose the horrid 90's hanger. I will take it to a fabrication shop to get the stays welded and the fairing cowl support made. But overall very happy with how its looking :) GoodNew1.JPG GoodNew3.JPG GoodNew6.JPG
