Thanks Paul, it's still a little cobby, but figured you guys want to see some progress. I am more confident that it will look good as a finished piece. Was completely unsure when I started. I added some pictures of how the aluminum 'wraps' around the frame tubes. Lou

You make me feel so lazy Lou. That you would put so much effort into producing that work of art. Now I need to redo the crummy thing on the TT1/F1. I know the dustbin fairing is going to be great! MikeV

I must say that the aluminum crankcase that houses the shock absorber is really a very functional and aesthetically very aggressive solution, congratulations Lou, you are really good. It is not easy to create curves on aluminum, you must be aware that you have the right amount of material to bend, the dimensions change according to the curves made on the workpiece. I hope you understand the concept of my statements. Hi Lou, hi guys!
