Crayola time...


Actually, they're markers, not crayons... I plan to pop by the paint shop to get some idea on a price quote for the RC...











Obviously inspired by the 1198 Gulf endurance bike...










Further on the endurance theme, one of these should be winging its way from Australia to me in short order.  A cracked upper fairing (which could still be repaired) inspired this...















Which was inspired by this -- an RC51 racing a Suzuka... if you recognize the helmet, that is a Mr. V. Rossi in the saddle.











Headlight is from a Euro-market CBR400 or 250 -- all the same size.  Cabin is a tobacco company from Japan (I think).











Towards the back of the bike, this is a faux carbon hugger I got on sale.  If need be, hopefully it can be painted Gulf Orange, to match the front fender.











Nice weather has allowed me to sort the undertail, properly secured with bolts, not plastic rivets.  Riv-nuts are wonderful things!
