How big is this frame? I can't get a real size reference.

Looks like fun though, I love cafe racers.

Just ran across this and I got an overwhelming urge to check the status of your build.

I always wondered if fiberglass resin would eat those floral blocks, I guess you put plastic wrap over it before you started glassing.

i used painters tape on top of the blocks then applied 2 coats of car wax for a forum release , but plastic rap sounds better, think i try that for the seat,thanks man!!
