  1. No regrets. I was really pleased with the end result. I guess the only regret was having to sell it a few months ago.
    Mead Speed might post a seat/fairing to Sweden, they're a bit pricey though....... Mead Speed - Classic Motor Cycle Accessories

  13. Looking good has the new tank been made yet,
     
  14. Top, and sides are done, should be finished by the end of the month... I hope.
     
  15. 100_1379.JPG 100_1380.JPG 100_1383.JPG Finally got the SS back today, and spent a few hours working on it this afternoon.
    If I can get the bike started tomorrow, and all the electics are okay, I'll start taking it apart ready for paint at the weekend.
    Just got to decide if it's worth paying to have the rear light bracket chromed.

  16. Skilled worker who made the tank :upyeah:
    As regards to the bracket it would depend on the final colour, you could swap your chrome one from the other bike, to compare.

  17. A local company called MCS made the tank.
    I think this is the 9th one they have done for me.
     
  18. What are the skirts down the sides of the tank?

    To me they spoil the look of a proper cafe racer tank.............but then I know what a 60s cafe racer looks like, so maybe I'm biaised.
     
  19. The projects were intended to be a copy of the Baines Racing Imola. Clas-sic.jpg
