the pics just dont do it justice

even with the naked eye you just catch the subtle chequered effect in the white and the faint silver fleck in the red

the fzr 400 rear light sets it off brill

i know paul, its hard to get the camera to show what you see standing
next to it

the pic of my new petrol cap shows the coloured fleck in the black paint
which is also ontop of the tail section i just cant get the camera to show it

it sparkles in the light along with the chequered effect in the white which you
also cant see in the pics

hopefully tomorrow night will see the nosecone on and then it will be a proud moment for me, over 1 year's work now
