    Quasi two piece suit, nothing to see really, bit grazed/scuffed on the bum and a 1cm hole in the right elbow. Tore a seam in the 1 day old Teknic lightning gloves and my boots are fine. Helmet didn't touch the ground either, not a scratch.

    When I had my low slide last month, I put a tiny 5mm hole in the pants and scratched the rubber off the pocket clips New pants too

    But nothing else touched the ground, only my right side near the hip. I rode the thing to the end haha. Helmet never touched the ground, neither did the jacket.

    Lucky then! I'm a firm believer of ATGATT. I wouldn't be walking without it. I'm contemplating riding even more nana like and no wheelie practice. Not on the ZZR again anyway. The tail unit is sitting nicely now, will figure out how to mount it. Thankfully I am very experienced in mounting things.

    I know that feeling. I almost fell off my bike after I pulled up to the lights. Usually put my left foot down when I stop. Was fretting when I couldnt get it undone by wiggling.

    Ah, now you see; by falling off you don't get caught.

    I'm now making my own seat, yes, I am that good. I'm using the foam from my spare seat, yes I have a spare seat and will make my own plastic base, because, as I said; I am that good. Pics when there's more progress (Polishing made me angry after a week of sitting there and sanding....argh.

    It's just the basic/rough shape at the moment and I'm making the plastic base in my head first....

    Off for a shower, the sun came out and I started to sweat and look like a grubby rapist.

ID:	245006Right, cut the subframe up today, made a mount for the tail unit, made a seat base and the foam is ready to be tidied up.

    Made one set of gauges out of two, I wanted to keep the 260k speedo from the 600 clocks, so I did. Pick of the hole on the jacket elbow.

    Yeah thanks for finding it, I like it!

    Yeah, custom steering angle/rake, very clever stuff.
