I will keep the pics coming. I plan to start a build thread since this thread was for opinions on the bike to purchase it, and now that I did I need to start a new thread.

I appreciate the encouragement and it was really no different than me working on a car. I have done body work before so it was easy to get the bike this far today. I used hardly any filler on the fairings. But the upper cowl stills needs filler to fill in some scratches and ABS to fix the missing piece. The lower right fairing also needs some ABS and filler before it is ready for primer.
