    Close is right. That is just plain nice! Great work Wiz! Love the detail on the tank.

    Yamaha should be paying you for the advertising.

    Why don't they make bikes like that anymore? Closest think recently was the Kawi XR1200.

    Great work, Wiz. I can't believe you did all this in two months.

    It's a shame my day job gets in the way of my fun. Except for the resultant income of the day job that funds the fun, of course.

    Exemplary. I see you figured out the "shiny edges on the fins" thing.

    It wasn't as easy as you suggested, though, I filed the edges & the paint chipped, so I finished filing & masked the edges with 3mm tape & sprayed the block again.

    Great work - the paint reminds me of late 60's Japanese bikes.

    Lower 48 in general. Otherwise Central Mitten.
    Another stunning example! Great work there Wiz!
    Does your talent come in kit form?

    Has Mrs W started placing "Project wanted" ads in the local paper yet?

    You know I've always wanted to visit Australia, and wouldn't it be nice to bring that back stateside with me! It's warm down there now too! Now let's see where did I stash that wad of cash???

    She has made a few veiled comments, I'm pretty sure I'm looking for an SR500, but they are rare as rocking horse poop. :eek:(
