But, the key, to remove cowling is under the cowling- in a tool kit, innit? 😁


Yes and no, I have a tiny allen bit on my keyring :wink:

Superb work.
The colour scheme is very original
I recall you mention not being sure about the indicator pods in an earlier email - IMPO I think they may make the bike look quite bulky in the shot from the rear and I think black or carbon would help 'lose' them a bit more and slim the bike.

But, that's just one opinion.

I bet you're not short of work !

Maybe a couple of tastefully applied silver Boxertrix stickers to finish it off?

Very nice job. I particularly like the way you've worked the stripes from the body to the tail piece, when viewed from the rear. If I was going to split hairs, the only thing I would fine tune would be the choice of the colour for the wheels. I would have gone for the darker of the blues in the stripes, or possible one dark blue and one red, so they stand out more strongly against the black lower body? That minor quibble aside though, I do think its a really stunning and refreshingly original design.

Drop me a PM and I'll sort you out some Boxertrix stickers, if you would like some?

All the best,

Paul
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

The only thing I don't like is the wheels.
I think they spoil what is otherwise an awesome job
