    Demote fail. Diamonds don't reflect, they refract! :duh:

    Asouter - love the paint job, but I wonder if the dash panel might benefit from some sides?

    Cheers Jeff, I like the dash. It turns that small uninteresting screen into something a lil bit different

    Hi Wayne, Thanks mate. I'm happy with how it polished up. :)

    Yeah I wasn't thinking when that pic was posted, it's amazing the things we miss :D

    Thanks Hukkel, I wasn't expecting for EK to do that, so it's a big surprise and big respect for the EK guys.

    I had to redo the belly pan with a different lacquer to the silk one I used, that has polished up really well, really shiny ... it looks wet kinda shiny ...looks great with the belly pan logo's, there's one that looks really good ;)

    I get the idea guys, like a diamond ... :D

    Thanks Ian, I'm loving the paint and the screen sides ... yeah from that angle I can see what you mean. I'm done with the screen but there will be the front forks, brake levers, handle bars and control cables in front of that view ... so I'm not too worried about it.

    The front view however will be quite prominent so that's why the front of the dash has been curled around to break up that edge :)

    Update 17/11/13

    I've been finishing off all the little things, First up is the Cooler Master fans. I've shortened and sleeved one of the cables. the other one I soldered on a male connector so that the fans can be "daisy chained" and run direct to the motherboard.

    [​IMG]

    Next up is the LED's for the Res, nice and simple, the Res was already pre-drilled by Phame so all I needed to do was secure the cable with a P clip and slot in the LED ... real easy job (Thanks Phame)

    [​IMG]

    Next we have the cables into the Motherboard, nice simple solution again. I have basically stuck on a couple of clips on a bit of plexy, but it keeps those cables really tidy. (the camera is picking up all the dust will have to wipe before taking final photo's)

    [​IMG]

    Something I very nearly forgot about was the front brake :wallbash: although it would have made things more interesting when riding the bike, it really needs brakes. I fitted a nice wave disk to add a bit more "bling" to the front end.

    [​IMG]

    So It's pretty much done, Just need to slot in an ngff drive and fill the loop. Waiting for the block from EK but that can be fitted later. Talking about filling the loop here's what I have got, some lovely Aurora 2 :)

    [​IMG]

    Here's the pre final photo's of the bike. next update should be the last :)

    I've added some EK decals, seems fair as the other sponsors have theirs on the bike :)
