i think the next stage for me is to sort the front forks,hub and shockers.
will post more picks as it progresses

was going to start on the panels but i need a break from the body work......

hiya will' well i was thinking of keeping it standard,and on the other hand i was thinking with all the weight thats going to be put on the scoot with chrome and all i was thinking a mallossi kit but aint decided yet,also changing it from 6volt to 12volt so i can have the spot lights working,but thats all a long way of yet.i also got to put a couple of coats of silver over the primer on the frame as im dong the base coat metallic,but again a long way from that. so much to do and not enougth time to do it lol
