    Well, heres a thing - please bare in mind it is a work in progress ...........





    I have just ordered a diddy headlight for it, the loom is pretty much sorted and if I can get the existing speedo to work properly, I will only need a small idiot light box rather than a new speedo that has them integrally fitted.

    Then it is getting painted black with the legend "sumo" on it somewhere (big fat jap bloke/dirt bike with 17" rims)

    When I grow up ..... yeah right!

    Y'see, I could say "You can go fast, I can go anywhere, Africa Twin" But you buggers have 'em as well so it would sound pretty lame .... oops!

    What are you doing with the bash plate? I've got a spare centre bash plate with the top corners cut at angles. i would probably suit this type of build, I'll get a pic tomorrow if your interested.
