| Last time (February) I had modified the
ducktail rear fender and brought it to Ben Oud for paint. After
priming I picked it up to do a laser scan and then brought it
back for the final piano black finish. Black is "invisible"
to my laserscanner so that is why I scanned it while still in
primer. |

| After picking up the freshly painted fender
I did a quick test fit and then installed the wiring. I had already
designed and lasercut a stainless steel license plate bracket
so I gave that a quick polish, although it will barely be visible
once installed. |
| I wanted a traditional cateye taillight,
it turned out there were 2 kinds available; one with leds and
a white lens and the other with a lightbulb and a red lens. Ofcourse
I wanted leds and a red lens so I combined parts from both types.
|
| Now I need to figure out if there is enough
room for the shocks to compress without hitting the license plate
and I will be good to go. I might add a simple luggage rack as
it would be nice to bring a tent and sleeping bag without damaging
my new paint... |
