Thanks Steve.

This is the guy I buy my fibre glass from, his name is Grant.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/h***a-TSR-250 ... 3a673c0dd4

The quick release side fairing mounts are from Dan Williams of Gecko and I made the front mount out of alluminium tubing and the clock mount from carbon fibre. Other than that, they pretty much fit straight on the KR-1/1S.

The tail piece is off a late H0nda RS250, but the rear sub frame resembles next to nothing of the original and is not so straight forward, but so long as you are not shy with the angle grinder and have some means of welding aluminium, they are straight forward alterations.

One thing I was supposed to do before Anglesey, was make a revised air box, but I've just not had the time.

Bike was going well he stuck it on front row in 3rd ahead of all the 400s and 650 twins got beaten by two moto450s to pole.
It seized in 1st race with few laps left :( started to slow from around lap 4 onwards had trouble changing gear as well need to get it stripped to see what happened :(

Have onboard video will likely upload to you tube.

Good luck with the build
