Forkin' forks now done. And we have a roller... There are 300+ parts in this kit. One tiny item has 4 even tinier seperate parts. And they are all the same colour so why make them like that? It's to test me...that's why lol. Alex

The tank is also in 4 pieces. Bit of a faff but all assembled... Ordered a can of VW Mars Red, it's a good Honda colour. More microscopic parts. This is 1mm long... Footrests and bars. Sprayed matt black first. Then masked with 3M tape... And sprayed in silver... Alex

Looks good Alex bought the new 750 Honda sohc that’s just out, then Actually did some airbrushing today the katana body work which was difficult as it’s 4 colours. Once I finish it then the joey rc30 and z1000 oh and the Lc it’s time for a skoal bandit rg500.

Cheers matey! Get some more Katana pics up, you do some fantastic work and I'd like to see the 4 colour paintwork. Sure lots of others would too.
Do you post stuff on Britmodeller? I put the SPV on there and got some great comments.

My first car that I owned hasn’t been a decent sport ever done before S935KBL where are you now? Bought this when I gave up my company cars and joined dibble. This and a gsxr1100wt in my garage. Look how complicated this one is And another 500 gamma this will be a Readers Special version, Ud front end, spannies, dymag wheels etc etc

Getting there, lots of real nuts and bolts fitted Underside of the tank Body work painted internally and externally just fitting etched grilles for the exhaust vents, also fitted pva glued tissue paper to represent the heat shield to the inner body The level of detail is getting scary!
