Trying some different engine colour combinations... still leaning towards stock black with polished head fins, although the blacked out cam caps and red head fins is sorta growing on me...

Might be my art degree part of my brain waking from the dead a little lol but I like the first one the best.

IMO you don't wanna over-do the red.

But cbr is absolutely right, it's total eye candy no matter what!

Haha cheers you lot! Input is always welcome :D

And I can only agree, stock black with polished fins is the way to go, every time I look back my eyes keep being drawn to that one, and it seems the consensus on multiple forums also... any red on there is just not quite right  :thumb:

That's a truckload of weed alright Yama!!!  :icon_lol:

Paint re-done on the front axle spacers last night and put the forks back together.

I guess the anti dive plates were leaking a lot longer than I first thought! Each leg has 227mL of oil in it, and I had to add a total of 140mL between the two of them  :icon_eek:

Oh well, should be all sorted now at least with the threebond.

Hahahah I have a feeling patience may be required sooner rather than later... I can see me rapidly hitting a point where I will be waiting for $$$ to finish things up...

Ran out of thread locker doing the anti dive block off plates again so I couldn't start on the lower crank case assembly tonight, so all I could really do is get the top case in the engine stand and get the drive shaft in.
