Which ones the best, revhead?
I keep seeing this Woodcraft one which is pretty pricey but looks like its nicely made. Is it worth the money, or are there other ones just us good? You told me to bling up my new engine - wanna get it right!
By the way, all credit to you. Once you got over your sore arse you've made some magic with your bike and it looks great. I envy your skills, mate! Step back for a moment and give yourself a pat on the back, and take a look at what you've done in such a very short time.
I really enjoyed watching the bike take shape, and I reckon the finished job looked awesome. Could not f****g believe what happened in your own street, just doing such a simple thing. Unbelievable, and I know it must have hurt ya (and not just your arse!)
I'm sure I'm not the only one who recognizes what you've now done, and how good its going to look.
I reckon you're pretty special, mate, and look forward to buying you a beer/turkey or three!
Keep the pictures coming!

Mick(Busa666) had one and after 2 months the bolts started rusting not to mention that at the very first time he gently laid the bike down the bolts ripped the cover right off making more damage,Gcraft is the way to go.
