Nearly finished now ! - just gotta make a hanger for the silencer and then collect the body work from my mate Keith ( should be ready soon !) .
All the electrics are done ( nightmare ! ) , the NOS is all plumbed in ( straightforward but a bugger to keep it all neat and hidden out of sight - you can only see the foggers if you look closely !), all the fluids have been bled ( eventually ) . i may even try and borrow a spare tank so i can get it running this afternoon http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/bounce.gif

The 2 1/2 lb NOS bottle 'just' http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif fits under the pillion seat cover of the GSXR Y2K seat unit- with just a tiny section of the bottle poking through the undertray - i've covered this part of the bottle with carbon fibre to match the undertray - and it's virtually invisible from underneath http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/lick.gif

I've re made the dash wich will sit inside the Kawasaki KLE headlamp fairing , it now accepts the SPA Design Tacho / Speedo , Oil pressure gauge ,NOS arming switch and the original GSXR idiot light cluster.

It , all looks dead trick when light up at night , i've modded the idiot light cluster to include a 'NOS Armed' light and the flashing LED for the alarm system.
