Calling this finished before it all falls apart on me. Managed to get some pictures outside this morning despite it being a bit breezy. The kit is not the best and took quite a lot of work in some areas, particularly the bodywork and exhausts. Final fitting of the bodywork was somewhat problematic and it still doesn't fit that nicely. The 'one size fits all' piping supplied for the brake hoses and cables is not really suitable for either scale-wise and therefore the routing of the clutch hose down onto the engine is not strictly correct. I managed to lose the lightly defined locations for the front indicators and the mirrors during prep of the top fairing so these are fitted in 'best-guess' locations and not quite even each side.
This is the first motorcycle kit I've completed in over forty years so I guess I shouldn't be too hard on myself and overall I'm glad to have got it completed. Thanks again to Jakko for running the Group Build and to everybody that has followed along and given encouragement. Here are the pics....
