Hi all I know you were expecting this finished tonight but I am sitting here with such a stiff neck I can hardly move, it's been coming on the last couple of days, hopefully tomorrow but if it gets any worse I doubt I will get out of bed Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Brilliant, love it Ken Really like the attention to the little details like following the damage on the side to the bent number plate and the cracked glass in the wing mirror. A great result

Thanks Dave praise indeed I also broke the knob off the break lever and scuffed the end of the handlebars, although that dosn't show in the pics. Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Ken saw your start on these and cannot believe how you have managed to make such a lovely job in so short a time. Really lovely finish and I take my hat off to you Sir as those decals are not the easiest to work with and you have them spot on. Top Job.  Happy Modelling

Thanks I am in awe of what you guys do wish I was as good I can only say I love this subject matter and if allowed would still be riding these kits are so good that a blind man with no arms could still do a great job thanks so much from a very crap modeler to the masters of the art. Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Very nice work Ken, love all your little 'wear and tear' details, particularly the cracked mirror and the various scuffs and bent number plate - very cool and well done on bringing the two bikes to such a successful finish. Love it!! 
You are not a crap modeller as you put it Ken, sure there are better modellers out there, but you are getting there and in my opinion you are at a pretty good standard already, better than many and sooner rather than later you will become a master yourself, it just takes practice which you are getting plenty of so well done again Ken and keep 'em coming!!
