Well finally made a start on this. Assembled the frame. Got some primer on it as well Also got the crankcases assembled and as the primer was out thought it would be rude not to spray it More soon. Al Spal attached the following image(s):

Your primer looks really nice and smooth. What brand are you using if you don't mind me asking please? Happy Modelling

A little more progress made.Got some mounts done along with the battery cage,muguard,underseat,lower frame section and wheels. Also joined the tank together and the tailpod assembly and after cleaning the join up some primer applied. Still needs to be sanded and another coat of primer before I paint her in her final colour.

Another update, got the battery done and fitted then added the drain pipe. Battery assembly added to the frame together with rear undertray and lower engine and frame parts. Airbox fitted and also coils mounted together with ht leads and plug caps. That's it for now, thanks for looking. Al Spal attached the following image(s):
