    I'll bet there is a secret door in the bottom of the tank where they are hidden.

    Because of that, the real fuel capacity of the tank is now down to 1.5 gallons, but you probably could not sit on that "seat" any longer than that, anyway.

            From what I can see, it's not that bad, but can you get a picture with better lighting and no visual clutter in the background?

                Nice to see your bike. Are you running without a battery and kick starting it? I bought the faster "Blue" model in 1977 but it's long gone.

                                    Thanks all ....... its been a very busy 10 months of lost weekends and evenings, especially as I did a couple of side projects too.( 1 picture attached )
                                    Had a picture of where I wanted to go in my head for some time and it's mostly there now .... still a few subtle changes but that's for much later this year.
                                    Part of the plan was to try and make it look like something Suzuki would've built - pretty happy on that front

                                                        You are correct!...although now I'm thinking converting it to the drone launch pad.
