Took a couple of pics of the AR50 it been stood awhile but its in great shape, its had new paint, powder coated frame etc etc, and it runs sweet.

I have the fairing and all bits and bobs to finish, should look nice when finished.

Ive had a chat with the seat guy! and im having a seat cover made up, instead of the pattern being moulded in it will be stitched in, should look very very nice.
