Geez, I'm very impressed. Is that an A/F ratio gauge on the right side?

me likey!!! i like the satin silver (it is satin, isnt it?) and hiding some gauges on the back of the turn signals. i would steal your idea, but mine are flush in the fairing... what did you paint the inner fairings with? how is it holding up?

Thanks guys!
The gauge is a stinger voltmeter
The paint has held up well.
I completley sanded The inner fairings down first then heat treated the panels with a torch since they are made of polyethylene.
I used black Krylon Fusion metallic textured paint and they came out nice.
The silver is nickel metallic from rustoleum.

Nice to see another innocent scooter brought back from the brink of being parted out.
Nice restoration.

My seat...
High end Acura leather was used and applied by a professional car seat upholstery shop.
The same lines that were on the original seat were used so it would still have that stock look to it.
