What's the tank off of/for? Nice work!

I'm very excited about this project, Stempy. I know you are a talented bike builder and this promises to be something special. In terms of the side panels, I think that the curvy bodywork would be better complimented by some early rounded side panels. As it happens, I have a pair for sale. Top quality Shapecraft ones.

In answer to Simon's question, I don't think we know the origins of the fuel tank but it appears to have been made specifically for a Morini V-Twin with the standard air box. Rick won the items in the MRC sealed bid auction.

Will you be fitting the fairing, Rick?

A lovely Set indeed

Starting to think the early panels would look better, i am trying to build without modifing the frame so could go back to standard if needed
