All front and rear piping complete, Honda badges and fuel cap applied. Just a few small parts to paint and glue on.

I've also decided to redo the windsheild fairing as I missed off a couple decals and it was annoying me, so that sprue is on order. After that, this should be complete.

Think this may very well be my last update on this as we're nearly there.
The rear fairing was a right bugger to attach!

But here's where I'm up to.

Wow! The black fairings with the engine details popping out behind them give the model so much depth. It looks amazing!

I love the use of different blacks, I've made sure I've stocked up on them so I can do a similar thing with shades when doing car interiors etc.
The effect works really well.

What colour was used on the exhaust? Titanium gold or something else?

Yeah I'm really happy with how the gloss and matt metallic black came out.

The exhaust silencer is painted titanium gold.
