very nice, think i'll paint my flywheel red couple of questions: front shock spring - looks strange - is it meant to be like that? front hugger mudguard - presume the Garelli from sip, is that the standard bracket or did you make one?

Looking good! Anychance you could pm me the specs for that engine frame? Sandblasted and spray painted with 99.8% alu on engine block 1 and same prosedure on block 2 but with red engine spraypaint on this side, i think it look's cool and a bit different than usual... :-)

Front Shock is a "color modified only" Malossi RS 24 and the front mudguard is the Carbon hugger from Garelli, the bracket is custom made, and look's way better than the "stock" bracket... :-)

I'll explain better, i was after the specs for the wooden engine frame. ;D
