Honda Britain nc30

Not a hugely special bike, but its my new VFR400 nc30, and would explain why I have been a bit slack on my other project VFR (My VFR400 nc30 build thread). This bike has been taking my time and money for the moment.
I bought the bike as the body work is in really good condition, and has a full SS exhaust system as well as a Renthal chain and sprocket kit. Although she was a bit dirty.
My first plan was to strip the fairing off and use it as a road legal track bike.
It all went on well as a track fairing could but I was far from happy with the result. So I decided to put my old original red fairing from my other project vfr. As well as giving her a good clean, lube and check over.
What I found hiding under all the grime.
Going back together.
Did my usual trick to VFR's and place some black vinyl to the screen to cover the bit behind the clocks.
Now done and a quick coat of speed wax.
It has a red rear seat on until I paint the single seat cover and I replaced the faded red anodised brake fluid resovoir with an original black one.
Next in line is to get a graphics kit from Brooky made up to make her look like this.
