ducatilover's squidtastic pile of crap

**ducatilover** · 11th April 2013, 10:03

Squidtastic piece of crap has changed direction a wee bit.

The tail unit will be an easy fit
Front fairing is mounted to the original mount on the headstock, but it'll need more to hold up to my powaaahhh.

I like it muchly.

Neat!

Maybe could use a bellypan or something as the lines from the headlight fairing look a bit out of place maybe?

I have three or four belly pans here, so I'll be looking at fitting one

It does look like it needs one

Yeah I'm over the moon, will upload more pics today sometime (have to take the little bro to the doc)
I've changed the angle of the tail so it's not so aggressive and mocked up an R1 belly pan, which I am completely in love with.

Sometime before next Thursday mate, I'll let you know

nice mate, very nice....needs more Hoooondaaaaaaaaaaaa though

**ducatilover** · 11th April 2013, 15:04

Thanks Yod.
I will save Honda-ness for Hondas

I do wish to buy another Honda

Anybody got thoughts on this idea, minus wood...
I think this tail position and the belly pan is pure win.

But, I wouldn't mind playing with the idea of side fairings

This is by far the best $2.50 I have ever spent...
Actually, I gave the fellow $5, because I'm a generous cunt

looks good, needs more matte black though.

Also, did you paint your brake calipers white

errr slightly...
Don't fret, they're not staying white

Going to mount up teh belly pan this arvo I think. Unless I get distracted, as always
I initially thought it wouldn't look very good, but I'm 100% sold on it now.

Needs Dougcati decals...

Very nice, great work

**imdying** · 11th April 2013, 17:03

Really, what it wants is a lower fairing.

As in side fairings?
It'd certainly look good with them.

Looking really sharp mate! keep it up!

Decided to try the new tail and belly with the old headlight

now I don't know what one I like better
What I do know is, that airbox is fucking ugly!!!!! I'm not a fan of pods on CV carbs, but I think a set of sexy unifoam pods in place of the faggoty airbox would be tasty?

Also, there's my beautiful beige and boring ovloV in the back ground.
