    Hopefully with genuine plastics you won’t have to do too much adjusting to get them to fit. Give me a shout if you need a hand.

    Cheers Kat, may well take you up on that. Lets hope they fit ok.

    Fairing has arrived. They are in a rather dubious GSXR aping colour, but seem a good match..

    Probably from a Chinese kit originally. I have the other side piece and belly pan too

    I forget, are you planning to spray them or keep them like they are?

    I can’t imagine it in GSXR colours, might be quite nice!

    Cheers Kat, I had the decal guy on my watch list already funnily enough. I can’t go the KR rep look because of the red frame

    I am also tracking this decal set on ebay:

    Well to be honest, not much to report…in fact nothing. I have toyed with the idea of selling the RD to free up some room (and cash!!), but think I would regret it the second it went.

    I have now found a chap who do a full resto on my paintwork for around £650. This includes repairs to cracks and all decals correct for the F1

    I will see what happens…watch this space….but not too closely!

    Made the difficult decision to sell the RD to a fellow enthusiast who lives locally to me. I am a bit sad I didn’t do the old girl justice. But on to pastures new I suppose!
