I took the liberty of tidying the code a bit, now we can all see the fruits of your labour. Whatever your taste, you can appreciate the care and hard work that's gone into this project.

Looking good I like the tail lights. 8-)
It kind of reminds me a bit of my girlfriends old Ducati Monster although you've obviously done a lot more work.

first test ride today.it went well,the back end feels quite firm,but with no padded seat at the moment it might feel better when that's on,it still needs some snagging i.e different coloured levers,if anyone has an alloy silver clutch lever for a '98 cyclone i'd like to hear but on the whole i'm chuffed,i thought the back end was more like an evil 1950's movie robot,but a crow's skull fits too :D

That my friend is a nice machine.

Chap at work built his own Egli style Vincent, fabricated the panels himself all polished metal. Makes me weak at the knees just seeing it. If I get his permission I'll post a pic to illustrate it's beauty - I do have one or two, but you've got my ideal modern cafe racer there mate, his is too old skool.
