      Why is common sense not so common?

        Finally got round to getting this old kit, which I put away as I was fed up with the bodywork and my several attempts at painting.... also looks like the fairing parts won't fit together very well.

            I'm calling this done ........ The fairing drove me mad! It just wouldn't fit together nicely however I tried :anguished:
            So I went with the unfaired version and that will have to do - Pretty horrible old kit to be honest, will stick to Tamiya from now on

              Pity about the fairing but a very nice model none the less.

                  Personally I think bikes look better without them….
