Just a quick update. Got the exhausts weathered last night! I used one of these Tamiya pastel kits and I was pretty well satisfied with the results. I think you can get equally good results with an airbrush and clear blue and orange but hey I'll try anything once.

Fitted two of them, the other two will have to wait for the fairings as they are secured under the seat. Oh and I'm trying out a new all white backdrop...

Very very nice progress Jason. The detail you've got there is outstanding.

Just bought my first bike kit and after seeing this I'm really looking forward to it. I've got the YZR-M1 in Yamaha 50th anniversary colours (yellow). Got a few bits of after market too so should build up nice.

Looking forward to the finished thing. Keep up the great work
