really enjoying this thread mate :plus: , can't believe she's held up as good as she has for 13 years laid up.

looks like you're polishing up a diamond in the rough there, the rear fender looks brand new, what kind of magic have you done there! and i think that scheme with the red wheels looks the business too.

Cheers the cleaning process has just been a combination of a air line, parts washer, scotch brite pads, brushes and acf50 even on the platics but just make sure you buff it off properly as jts just oil at the end of the day.

Very nice, Honda's build quality from that era shines through.

Are you sure that fairing panel is made by silhouette? They sell theirs with a square lamp cutout or wth nsr500v air scoops. Is that maybe an cbr250rr mc22 fairing type?
