I did glass lay-up once. Enough to figure out how to do it - and enough to know there are better people out there to do it. Keep us in the loop, i think you'll have lots of interest.

i guess this is going to be sort of a race to see who makes one first. a few members have spoken of this already. i can't wait to see the results. i might even make up a dummy one with a spare tail fairing i have kickin around and possibly make a mold of it if it ends up lookin good.

I've thought about fixing a cafe racer fairing to the CB-1, anyone tried it?
