Nice work... did you do the fiberglassing yourself? If so, what did you use as the base to connect to the bike?

Its all fiberglass... made a form out of planters foam on the bike.. carve and sand to shape. Then filled a box with plaster and put the foam form into it, and that gave me a great negative to glass. The mounts I made look horrible.. but they are glass and very strong. I wasnt going to use the factory latch and rear mount, but did it as an experiment.. surpisingly, it works very well. So kept it on there, but again.. it isnt pretty[:@]After getting the pipe, solo seat, levers, and all of my tune-up work done this month, going to take a break and just ride. Got vortex rear-sets to get on, and sliders also. Thats about it for now. Would like to find an upper cowl that I can glass over the light openings for track day...
