Hi Al, I have just had a good browse through your build log and your model is looking brilliant. I have just ordered mine, so it will be a while before I reach the stage where you are now. Hopefully, I should receive my first parts within the next couple of weeks. I am really looking forward to building this bike.

Hi Geoff, thank you very much for your kind comments. You have made a good choice as its a great model and well detailed. A word of warning though, these quarter scale bikes are addictive so be prepared to get the other 2 Al

The next parts have arrived. A closer look, the frame half is well crafted and will add to the weight. Stickers applied to the shocks. The chainguard is a good tight pushfit. Rear brake assembly fitted. Rear brake pedal fitted to the frame. A closer look at the brake pedal assembly. Roll on next month. Al Spal attached the following image(s):

Hi Al Nicely done,The frame gives a good indication of the size of the beast, just check all the holes for burrs, just in case, there were non on mine but still worth a check. Andy Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Very nice work, the black plastic rear of the rear mudguard will be hidden under the frame and seat so just the chrome part will be visible on the finished model. Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

I have decided to subscribe to this build. Could someone please tell me. Why is it that some months you get three packs and sometimes four packs with each monthly issue. I thought there were four packs every month? It certainly looks an impressive model.

I thought there were four packs every month? It certainly looks an impressive model. Firstly, welcome to the forum and in subscribing to a great model. It certainly is an impressive model and you won't be disappointed in the quality of parts you receive. I'm not entirely sure why the number of packs per month varys, but I think it was to keep the monthly costs down by spreading the parts out over a longer period. I'm sure someone from the support team will have the answer for you. Unfortunately whether you get 3 or 4 packs a month it is never enough and the wait for the next months delivery never gets any better Al

Hi Going2seed The Honda 750 is a great build and seriously bigger than you think im sure you will enjoy your build and choice. To answer your question 80 issue's over 24 months works out at 3.3 issue's per month so to balance things out some times only 3 sets of parts will be sent. Generally when its a three issue month its maybe that larger parts like the frame halves are sent. The stand top is a large cut piece of acrylic that is sent in its own packaging. Hope this answers your question. Regards Andy Ps: Sorry to have jumped your diary AL Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
