Started to mock the motor up , as I still dont have the piston kits yet, I thought I would paint it up and give it a racey look. :D

Well my Barry Sheene replica project has been slow going , waiting for parts ect. I have got the engine together finally after the pistons, gaskets, bearings arrived , so now that is in one piece, my son painted the wheels up after much pestering, so now I am rooting around making this Yammy fairing sorta look like it belongs on there.
I am off to Thailand in early August with Carol, so no doubt this will slow development :D
