Right well. Sorta Significant update.
Yesterday and today I have as usual been working on the boot install. woooo. Everyone must be getting sick of this by now surely....
Anyway, I started by getting my tank back up to spec with all new teflon tape and loctite.
And this is what happens when I am a spaz, thankfully it only happened once and it was an easy fix.
Then put it all in the tank, got it looking good and proper, all the joins look good, now I just hope it holds air. The teflon tape is thicker than the last I was using and it was perfect, no reason it shouldnt hold air just as well then!
Anyway, made up some mounts on the floor to hold the tank and then got bored. Yesterday was wasted really.
Spent my day wasting it again today, wooo. Came home and then decided I should probably put in a bit of an effort with the boot, so I got stuck into it.
I got my main idea going, which was the belts just for something a bit different!
And then got the whole whole floor done and varnished the last two planks and its all looking much neater than what it was, even got the last few bits of wiring done and everythings ready to roll again, just need my copper lines on monday and it will be set!
So yeah, thats how its looking. Its not the greatest and its not the best, but hey, I got the wood for free, it was warped from sitting outside, had a half working jigsaw and a few tools and I am no carpenter. so. I'm actually glad and impressed about how it turned out.

Stain on the boards looks good, belts are an excellent idea.

Now that guards are rolled I'm going to get some proper fitment and filling of those guards going this afternoon, that should be joyful.

Updates! But first, have another picture. Because im a low rider crammed full of free health insurance and welfare (If anyone watches archer?)
Anyway. After that I have rolled guards this week and all, thought it was time to clear up some of that sunken in guard look. Well, it went... interestingly.
Start with the fronts, go from worst to best. I got a bit... carried away and tried my luck at 27mm spacers up front. yeah, 27mm, LOL.
Yeahhhhhhh it didnt camber up quick enough when airing out.
So I could have pumped the absolute oblivion out of the guards but didnt feel the need to ruin stuff so I have put off the fronts for now and getting some 15mm spacers, hopefully today to fix up my over eagerness.
So then I got to the rear. Decided to throw on my 30mm, was JUST to big, lucky enough I'm a fool and still have the 27's so after a big dickload of screwing around raising the rear a tad and fiddling with camber and toe arms, here it is! Looking almost Stance|Works worthy?
Woooo. then I went and had a chilling sesh with a few mates around the place and have yet to get their proper photos of my rear, but I will throw them up when they are done!
