Looking great! I like the carbon on the top of the forks more than the stuff on the bottom

Yay! progress on a build. Looks beautiful like a Raadking, looks bigger than it actually is. At least someone here is moving along. I took a few steps back on my build, my lower triple is bent causing the wheel to be crooked. Had to order another one. That'll be my third triple... my triple triple. At least you're keeping me motivated.

I saw your RR and looks like you need a battery and some kind of ECU. How much you got left on your wiring?

Do you have an expected first start date you're shootin for?

Very cool dude.

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

Bit of progress today, fitted the Afam sprockets (alu rear) and their top spec chain. In blue of course

Alao got the down pips and collecter loosely fitted, just need to find a can now.

Looks epic mate, keep them coming!

The rearsets are nice, I like how they are framed if you like. Are they custom ones you made?

Ask any artist, blue and red works well together, they are opposites on the colour chart.

One question, what is the expected longevity of an aluminium rear sprocket?

Pretty good on the Afam ones apparently, they're hard anodised.
