#1401
Last night i ordered my new tyres & went for a pair of Michelin Pilot Road (no number after them?) should be here by the weekend. Iv had Avon Azur on her since i got the bike 2 years ago & got 5k on them, not sure what they had done before me. Im sticking with the standard 170 on the rear because the price was the same as 180 i was expecting to get with the pair deal.

Going to be a couple of weeks until I start it. I''m starting to mock up a heat shield. Right now I'm at three pieces that need to be rounded and welded (using 20ga steel)

Here's the mock-up of the 3 piece heat shield I was doing:
And then I though, 'Everybody else has a simple design, why re-invent the square?' So I made a 1 piece instead.
And proceeded to hammer the **** out of it to curve it (who says that **** isn't a good thing?)
Welded a pair of nuts to the pipe and drilled a pair of holes to mount it
Currently hanging up and drying after applying about 5 coats of high temp black paint
