Thank you. I just noticed all the white sanding dust on the frame. I need to wash it.I had to fill the tops of the fenders with filler. They were 40 thou sunk from the rolled edges.Good enough for boat trailers but NOT a Guzzi. :grin:

Very nice. I must have missed your build posts and details about how you did it and what you had to modify/ manufacture to make this work. I’d like more narrative, but looking at the pictures of the final product I imagine you’ve been a very busy boy. KOOL
