That is very impressive, moreso the price.

Is that what they call Ghost Chrome?

I only like the 73, never liked the modern fizz. not a lot of work!! strip it, powder all the silver n black, couple of pattern parts, engine re-build and your sorted 6 weeks, go on I know you want too. like the fairing, would look really good matching colour to your fizz. did you get them all local?
I got mine 2 mins down the road in 5 boxs!!
