Wayne, Jim's right, Matcho Mick is the man for glass repro. Just had a couple of a RM80N guards made from what I considered a fairly rough mould I'd won on fleabay for 99 cents and they turned out much better than I expected 8)

See it thought fettle was to like cobble together ?  which i think has been my previous failing at the last 2 nats where shit failed to work.  So maybe its better i leave this one in the hands of the factory to prepare............

I note your up graded picture - one feels your getting a tad excited at the prospect of the mighty Kawasaki. Its hard being green.

i thought he was more like Topcat ( as in cartoon) and me more like garfield.    :o

like they say 'potential and 50 cents' get you a sundae at maccas.......

mesmerised ???  what like an old dog on the front porch.  ;D
but i do like  'powerhouse combo" phrase , sounds good....  but hard to live up to though.

IF we get my shit together , i might see if the guys can post up,  the KX125 slider thread.  or as dave says " project freaky to the nats...............   updating  thread.   ;)
