Maybe trim the body panel/cowel cowl a bit more?

Fitting the painted plate was a breeze.

Upon removing the cover, the starter reduction gear axle came out as well with the o-ring falling down. It was a bit of a wiggle to get it in again.

The clutch springs were only a fraction below factory new spec. all friction plates 3mm so re-used tem as well. Some of the metal plates had some discoloring, so changed them from the clutch pack I bought used.

The basket looks like this:

Unless the concensus is that I will crash, burn and die if I leave it, I will leave it

Looks fabulous Dutchy. Love the fairing mod. Mind if I copy it on my fifth gen? Do have a patent or copyright? If not, you should.

Very nice looking bike!  The new peep show window looks great with the plate matching the drapes.

Price for copying is $50

but I give you a 100% rebate...

I used my set of compasses (I kept since secondary school :ph34r:  ) with the old cover still on to make sure the circle cut out was proper round. (don't want to mark the lexan do we?)

Sourced a damaged (where I would be cutting anyway) lower cowl for cheap; unfortunately could not find a mid section with damage in that area... 

Dremel with cutting wheel is handy to have as well.

Very well done, I love the idea of cutting back the fairing.

Now about those blue rim stripes........
