Will do! Don't forget though, that it's suppose to be a temporary 'test' job and it's a bit, well... you'll see.
Having had a closer look at the RC45's, I came to the conclusion that I did the numberboard slighty too long! Still, I am a perfectionist (and proud!); so when I get a proper final paint job done on it, I shall be pestering the painter constantly to make sure it'll be done exactly how it should be! :ugeek:

I have a picture of the 8hr '45 from the front that gives the perfect view of the number board if you want it. Shows size and shape very well. Like you I cant stand when the paint work isnt quite right in the form of shape.

There are a couple of bits on my bike that make me cringe but one one seems to notice lol.

Oooh yes please! Always want more piccies of the 8hr RC's; post it up on here please! 8-)
It is annoying to say the least, when paint work isn't exactly like you want it to be!

Different subject: What happened to all the posts in this topic? :?: They're back!???

Thanks jowyvfr & thank you too RVF for the photos; I only had one of those you sent me! 8-)
Mmm, drill the fairing huh? Nah, I dare not and besides, I don't think the 94 8Hrs RVF had its fairings drilled! ;)

No worries. Glad you hadn't seen them all before. Hope they are of some use.

You're quite right, the '94 spec HRC 8hr RC45's didnt have drilled fairings, they started doing that again in '95.
