Busa is starting to look like a Busa again. Got the nose fairing on this morning and all the lights are functional now..
Discovered an anomoly with the nose fairing plastic when I went to put it on. Got the part from Ebay, can't remember what year it was from, but came off of a running bike (had some scratches, road film, etc.. on it), never noticed it until this morning.
A mold flaw..
Picture is upside down, but it's the underside lip over the front fender. Thought it was broke at first, but looking closer can see a rounded, smooth edge where the plastic didn't quite fill all the way. Nothing I can do about it, out of sight, so I'm going to run it.
Back to waiting on more parts. Left inner is scuffed pretty bad so getting another, and found I was missing one of the bolt, rubber grommet things that hold the windscreen. Ordered from Ron Ayers.. waiting. Doesn't look like it'll be done on the 4th weekend now. Ahh well, been 10 months, pretty much forgot what it's like to ride it, so another week won't matter much.
Where it's at so far. Hopefully the next post will be about a finished product.lease:
