The new air box is coming along quite canny now, although the amount of time its took is staggering! I started what seems like two weeks ago and it's still not finished! I have redesigned it slightly and remade some sections to be fair.

It fits under the bonnet OK and just needs a cover and a means of fastening it to the carbs. The cover will be permanantly attached with 5 fixings through the box. I've purchased some 8mm tube from B&Q and I'm going to extend the mountings through the box and out the top of the cover with some 6mm thread bar to hold it all together. Then I'll be making a scoop to go under the top of the nose cone apparture, again out of said old washing machine and I should have a system that uses the carbs as they were installed on the original motorcycle.
