Doing a few trim bits last night, added number plate lights and door rubbers etc.

Hadn't run in a few weeks so gave it a quick rev

sounds like a 2 stroke lol are you going to get away with it?
or is it the mic,

Might be the garage / phone but it's certainly not quiet!

I'll check the noise level at some point, it might end up with a different exhaust

What type of exhaust are you running.

I just had a single silencer box on my old VVC and from memory it was 96db noise tested

It's a Hornet kit. It's basically a cheery bomb mid section and another cherry bomb at the back.

Not done a huge amount over Xmas but there isn't loads left to do really!

Insurance bought and paid for, starts in a few weeks.

Fitted the washer bottle and plumbed in the jets.

Blue interior, ordered some padding for the cage.

Started making some door cards in Ally

This is really cool, top quality work

Sounds raw aswell, I shall be buying one of those hornet kits for mine!

They do seem good value, it might be a bit on the loud side though, need to measure it.

It felt appart so I glued it back. Went to fit it and the original pegs put stress on the joints, crack. Had a new factory one so stuck that on for now, May get changed again later !

Glass is back in

Glad I paid someone to do it!

Rocker cover stripped, etch primed this time ready for 2k paint rather then a rattle can.

Bought myself a big bra, very useful for shopping

and helmets.

Mini GT style stripes?
