One bonnet top done. Sits quite well even without stiffeners or hinges and so far I'm pleased with the look. It's 1.2mm thick aluminium so is fairly stiff and was a pain getting the tapered roll over even.

Thanks folks. Yep quite pleased. It's not perfect, but is better than I hoped. My right hand/wrist is getting painful so may have to take a break from this or at least strap it up before continuing.

Not much patience today! Three attempts at getting one small panel done and I'm still not happy, so went for a ride instead. It covers the steering column, where it cuts through the side panel and the top of the frame cover. Looks simple. May try again when I'm in a better frame of mind.

With the bike out of the way had a chance to get an overall pic. Gives some idea of where I'm heading with this.
