Yeah - it involved a couple of rolls of masking tape and some glad wrap (jeez that sounds dodgy [:0])

Probably would have been easier to drop the motor and strip the frame in hindsight....but it turned out OK....and within budget ;)

That's awesome mate, nicely done. Where'd you get that seat cowl from? Reckon it'd fit a 98 ZX-6R as well?

Thanks for the comments fellows :D

Scampy - headlight is off a Bug Agility scooter

2ndclasscitizen - the cowl is a Targa cowl from www.kneedraggers.com They do a ZX6 one - it's a slightly different seat shape to the 9 (don't ask me how I know this!)

And Gix - sorry mate it looks like I can't make Bike Week either - some previous commitments I can't seem to get out of :(
