Panels in place





The panels are mounted on the bike. The exact possition is adjusted with leather washers. The three mounting points feels quite solid, and I hope that the panels wont rattle to much when the engine runs. If they rattle to much they will cut a nice little hole in my dragin jeans. My knees is just reaching the back mounts - I will need to make well rounded custom nuts to save the clothing. I could not resist throwing some paint on the panels, just to get a picture of the result to come. This is just a color sketch with an of white to match my vintage jacket. This will serve as a backdrop to a number and some sponsor logos.
