Shagger: You will find that the K&N sounds like a teenagers car with the air filter removed when you open the throttle. I hated it but took the airflow parts from the Suzy one and fixed them to the K&N so I've got the best of both worlds.

I wasn't a big fan from the earlier pictures, but this is bl**dy gorgeus!

(any chance you can refresh the rear axle as well, looks out of place with all the new shiny stuff around it...)

Its how it all goes together in the end

Small things like the axle will be sorted once the bulk is done. Actually spoke to a laser cutting place today about getting some chain adjuster plates cut in titanium.
