After you sell these bikes post your build up, financially speaking without going into details, what sort of position are you in?
Just curious....
Beautiful work by the way

Have you considered this paint job?
Of the KTMs I think it looks the best.
That does look good

Well I got the fairings back from the shop.. all good,except I have decided to make a change and get the gloss orange made into satin like the tank and front guard.. So these pics are in the gloss at the moment.. It just doesn't look right, so another coat of satin clear will fix it.. I was going to go satin in the first place but my mistake, you live and learn hey.!! Still the finish is excellent, so an easy fix...
I am also waiting on the proper 'KTM' stickers to arrive, so the bike looks very bare at the moment, but I will post the totally finished pics when I get them on next week and the satin done as well. Also fitted the new rear sprocket today, last of the race mods... so all mods I had planned for have been done and ticked off the list.
Next thing I am tackling is a slipper clutch, and a quickshifter. I have decided to make this one a full on 'track / race bike', so sparing no expense here.. So when I finish these mods it will be the same spec as the RC8-R model before the engine size was upgraded. Slipper Clutch ordered.. more pics coming next week...

If you see the bike in the flesh, you can see the difference.. I am going to get a clear satin sprayed over the gloss orange only to make it the same low sheen as the tank and front guard... I know it does look good, but I am a perfectionist..
Then I will put all the stickers on it and it will look HOT..!!
