i think your aluminum tail keeps the heritage of the machine and is more appropriate for this machine.

I have allways loved the look of the KR`s B) but with the photoshoped photo it does look very out of scale. You would need a real one in place to get the full picture as im sure the real part is physically smaller ;)

Yes! the one on the KR looks a lot sharper.
I would need to get that exact scale/look for it to work.
Won't go forkng out for one until the bike is finished and see how it looks as is with some paint on.

Zed Another thought/perspective would be..... the Ducktail you have made it yourself ! So it is a one off like the rest ;)

I agree with Puffin, everything on your bike is made by you - stick with that.....by the way your bike looks like it's doing the ton standing still....very nice stance.

Little bit more progress.
oil pump,sump and clutch cover on so it's now all oil tight.

[img

Chain on and gear linkage extended to fit with some 10mm hex ally bar
[img


Oil cooler mounting finalised with hooks for retaining strap , just needs a coat of paint to finish
[img


[img


[img


Made a start on trimming the XJR front mudguard.
[img


But for one reason or another i wasn't happy with it
[img


Decided to go back to plan A and have a crack at whittling some of that alloy road sign
Guesstimated the shape i needed , cut it out and beat the crap out of it for two days until i had ....
[img


....THIS
[img


[img


The last time i did this it produced a copper ash tray in second year metalwork :lol:
[img

[img

[img


Several hours (and blisters :( ) later a very long session with the files and course paper produced a smooth surface ready for the final finish
[img


Not bad eh?
[img

[img


Think this looks much better than the xjr one ?.
Just need to figure out the mounts now.
