Wow that paint finish is amazing!

If I may be so bold as to make a suggestion, did you consider sanding the seams out of the middle of the tyres? I'm nit picking because the rest of the build looks literally perfect.

Gidday Gary, thanks for the comments, funnily enough I did sand them down somewhat, but still the seam shows I agree :). I do remember the rubber being fairly hard compared to the kawasaki I built recently.
