I put a soft PVC tubing in the fairing for
brake cables. |

| Testfit the wheels
and brakes. ( azuza ). at this stage i have to glue the fairings. You can
see the mold in the back! |
The fork is
machined from a single piece of aluminium. In this stage it is not working
well. It need some extra milling. the fork is comming to the shimmy brake
plate. |
 |
 |
| Nose wheel testfit.
No anti shimmy brake yet and the wrong bungies! |
Laminating the ash
10 layers (10 days). After curring and releasing the clamps it became 1
inch wider. |
