The Dirt-One acid engraved logo

Still working on refreshing the engine look on The Dirt-One, so me and my friend Feib from "Genuine alien technology" decided to try something a bit different and use acid engraving to "print" a custom made logo on the cam belt cover.
After several attempts, this is the first result


The cool part is that it change a bit depending on the light and it will age along with the bike varying colors and shapes.



More acid-works to come.
Thanks a lot Feib!

Ok, I know it isn't that much without the engine in, but I'm working on that too...

The Orange Project tachometer (testing)

Stealed from the 4 wheel racing world...


...dismantled...


...and inserted in the usual Plan-B-tacho-support with a "stealth" look



I like to have the chance to add the external shift light in the future.

Double or nothing

A small change of plan for The Orange Project, nothing major, but I've decided to go with a twin exhaust
So, another silencer on the left side...






I still have to connect it to the previously made downpipe, but it should not be too complicated 


Nomad

Almost ready to take everything apart on this one too. Hopefully.  If I don't come up with some last minute overcomplicated stupid idea ...
