    Getting close to ride day. Bens finished the paintwork and now it's just a case of getting the seat fitted.

    I know I shouldn't be surprised as it's Ben's work but I think it looks better than I'd imagined. The sub-frame makes it as it sorts the lines out nicely but I really didn't expect it to have come together so it almost looks like it was supposed to be that way.

    Geoff from Rapid is taking pics of it next Tuesday so we can get some well deserved coverage for Bens work in the mag.

    Ladies and Gentelmen, take my advise. "Pull down your pants and slide on the ice."

    Yep - still not sold on the hugger myself. It's looks a bit too big. I'll see how it is after living with it and maybe change it then

    it was carbon fibre to start but its difficult to get a short one. There were shorty huggers out there but they had really triangular lines and didn't match an older cafe racer look.

    might be best to just get another one and cut it down. Now the arse is quite a bit shorter, stock huggers line up with the end of the tail and it looks too much.

    I've sold 2 cars to get the fucker built (well ones gone, one's got to go now) so i'm cleaned out now! It'll have to wait.

    I'd try some mat vinyl wrap over it first, then maybe airbrush some mat black tread over the vinyl. You can always peel it off if you dont like the effect.
