@Calum cheers dude. Yes and more to come... Hopefully tomorrow.
Only thing that might delay this project is that shock bearing + collars... Knowing how everyone always sends the wrong part

@Calum yes a few people but I will need to do a drawing.. they don't like doing free hand jobs and programming for a small quantity isn't what they want

Without this seal , you might as well not have an air filter. So I made a new one
New twin air filter on the way..I literally spent a hour cleaning bolts an fitting... But it has to be done
Even though the seat cover was in good condition, I wanted baby blue + Yamaha logo
One of my least favourite jobs... 2hrs of tweeking..
I will let it shape over the weekend and then give it a final stretch.
I like the red to match the forms and purpose to match the frame.. the graphics are blue and purple so the seat will make sense.

Shock absorber came up nicely (no paint ) might consider re painting spring

Wow, those handlebars are gorgeous!
Might not be a bad shout to get the shock repainted, either to that original pink, or to adhere to your scheme.
Looking sweet.

So , the silver parts were ready and the exhaust expansion was blasted..
I may upgrade to a FMF system or dep. And sell this exhaust.Started prepping bits for assembly. Tapping holes etc.

As suspected not all wires on the new clocks were correct.
New clocks had a blank where the oil light is and a completely fake temperature light..
So I transfer all original loom onto the new clocks and drilled a hole for the temp light and put a long bulb holder in to hold the bulb close to the "red" window
New temp light
Brand new fully functional clocks at a fraction of YAMAHA cost:
