Thanks for the pic of the tail light, good idea, did you have to re-work the plastic to fit them??

I took a look at your piccies again and it looks to me like you have got something on your bike I posted about a while ago - handguards. My idea with these is to keep the wind driven rain off my hands - it's always my fingers which go first if i'm out riding and it's cold/wet. Did you make them yourself or what make are they? How do they fit around the clutch/brake master cylinders?

Also. I looked again at your piccies - it looks like you went the whole hog and re-routed the cables from the outsides of the bike - that must have been quite a mission.

Basically, I think there are bunch of guys here who would appreciate some high resolution images of your bike from all angles. Sorry about that Mr fly70!

Thanks!

Those "handguards" are actually mirrors

I took apart the whole bike and painted or polished almost every part. I changed all wearing parts and put it all back together. In that point cables were easy to hide.

Sorry for the messy pictures, those are taken with the cell phone. I try to add newer good quality pictures to the gallery at some stage
