Finally completed. Only thing left off is mirrors and/or bar ends; undecided. I think it does resemble something from the 1970s well. More to follow. MikeV Attachment:

Modern day 'Z' stripe! Looks great Mike. Is she comfortable to ride? Lou

You would catch that Lou. Yes, it is a tribute to the Spagiarri bevel racer, with reference to the early Z-tank 750 Sport. That is why the black side covers (and eventually rocker covers). And, this particular curved stripe meant I did not have to match up, perfectly, a horizontal stripe at the bottom of the tank to one meeting the bottom of the tail section!
This is the first day of no rain for over a week. So, no road test yet. But, yes, I have found the rider's position to be very nice. I got 18.5+ inches from top of the pegs to top of the seat - compared to 14.5 for an F1 and a TT! I have had time to improve the carburation, and all systems seem to be a go. We will see.

Looks good Mike. I do like where you located the front turn signals. Discrete and less wiring in and around the steering head. You never did mention what engine is powering this beauty.
