So today was going to be about clear coating the tank as I was hoping to get that back last night but I didn't get it until lunch time today. The wait was certainly worth it !!!!

While I was waiting I though I should keep busy with something useful so I got started (basically finished) the fender struts. Just need to find the right bolts and wing nuts. I did drill some extra "speed" holes in the fender struts but didn't take a picture, also thinking of mounting the rear indicators off the struts?

Anyway, the tank now has a clear coat drying on it. Hopefully I can finish it sometime tomorrow as I want to get as many coats as I can on to it to protect it.

Next step, mount the tank and rear fender.

Strutty goodness
