Default THANKS

Cheers guys for kind words,dash is a 1 off which i made from glassfibre,cardboard etc,lol,then i took it to my m8 who works for production glassfibre,he made a mould for it and produced a 1 piece glassfibre job,which i then sent away and had a flocked.
The mapping is going well,spoke to alan few days ago,making good progress,but as he said combining the hyabusa bodies with the 750cc injectors,and the ???? spec turbo is not something he does everyday,so as i said to him,its ready when its ready.......just really wanting it back now though its that close,its mot,d taxed,ready to go.......Will keep youz posted though guys,cheers...Wul.

Looks awesome, Wul. Love the dash. Suppose I better go do a few hours on mine. I know what you're saying about one off parts and no time. My builds far from standard, not using off the shelf parts and I only get one day a week to work on it and have to travel 250 miles just to do it!.....Each way! Makes it worth it when it all comes together, though!
