| The drain plugs have had a thin mixture of epoxy paste poured around them to assist in removing water. Handle bars will be changed for lower version, I also used the cling wrap to obtain excellent alignment of lower steering block I oversized the hole and then filled it with Epoxy Mix with the steering shaft wrapped in cling and sitting in the hole |
| Engine cover glassed externally to stiffen it up, Plans call for two layers on internal seems but I put one layer on each side this should stop joint splitting. |
| Yes the seat is a little short but I decided to add an extra hinged piece so I can check the fuel guage without everyone having to hop off the seat |

| I found the Duct was about 25mm out of round (wider than taller)after a few layers of great stuff were applied I set up this crude radius guide and then cut the foam out with a small Handsaw then I coated the Duct with Epoxy paste and sanded and filled until it was round and smooth sounds easy but it took nearly a month to complete. |
