Yeah. It'll take me a few rides to get used to riding her again, but she's sweet.

It does look good. Reminds me of your George white kwack :)

You even put it together properly ;) the only thing I'd do is change the crash bungs, they don't suit it IMO. Other than that - lovely.

Yep, I did post I didn't like those crash bungs. I bought them because you don't have to cut the fairings but didn't realise they stuck out so much.

To be honest I wouldnt worry about the crash bungs sticking out. As long as they do their job they will save you so much time and effort. Again it's not if you drop her it's when. I know that sounds harsh but it's part of biking whether we like it or not. You take a risk of not having them in my opinion
