Looking good, particularly like the radiator guard leaning against the ladders.
Now comes the fun part of installing the wiring loom.

That radiator guard is actually a scrap one that moved when it was being cut so it is a bit messed up.
Hoping to get the replacement next week.

Yes they are Sandy pipes, just need to polish them up a bit as they are a bit dull.
The only reason I got the Contis, sad as it may sound, is that I liked the look of the tread pattern.
