hi people.
has any one done this model befor......can't find a build log here............
the rear subframe appears to be too long on the bottom legs and possibly too much rake on the forks.......

and the assembly pic.......

I can shorten the rear sub-frame legs, and possibly the head set rake if necessary when further into the build .
I will have to see what it looks like when the tank and seat are on........
regards
don

Don, i think thats how it should be, I downloaded and printed this one but have yet to start working on it. I did enlarge it (old hands) about 135%. Did the same to the Yamaha YZR-M1 (love the thro-back color) and it came out good....Rich
