Re: 2009 YZR-M1 test bike/ Lorenzo WIP
WOW Marco -
I'm really glad I asked if there where any WIP pics - this is fantastic - the carbon decalling is perfect. Also the attention to detail is unbelievable - the paint - the washes wiring etc Every bit as good as any bike on the forum you really have skills - John |

Marco - how do you determine the measurements for the holes to mount the posts that hold the bike in place in the jig??
I see you make a dedicated base for each bike?? Thanks John |

I am using a hi-res scan of the side view from the box, scaled to actual size, and drafting software to measure the model, and make a guide for drilling. Yes JimboCO, Thanks! You can PM me if interested, as I've already made some for other bike builders.. might try an Ebay store for this, if there's enough market demand.. |

Re: 2009 YZR-M1 test bike/ Lorenzo WIP
Fantastic work Marco as usual.... the only remark is the centerline of the tank cover.... it's visible under the decal..... but probably I want to find something to say as I'm a little bit envious....

Marco - what company and part number is the carbon decal you used on this bike?? It looks correct to scale. Thanks John |

Re: 2009 YZR-M1 test bike/ Lorenzo WIP
Probably you are right John because if I'm not wrong that piece doesn't come in two halves...
I apologize..... p.s. someone could tell me because I'm not able to insert smiles? when I pass over them nothing happens to the cursor.... |

Re: 2009 YZR-M1 test bike/ Lorenzo WIP
Thanks guys,
Andrea, you have a very good eye! The part was originally in 2 pieces, the carbon seam is exactly on the join line, but it is a small defect, and I am learning! (my 4th build with PE and resin parts) No need to apologize :-) John, the CF is from ScaleMotorsport.com.. It is 1/20 scale "Twill weave" I love this product, and highly recommend it! |

Re: 2009 YZR-M1 test bike/ Lorenzo WIP
Beautiful work! I'm very impressed. I haven't built any Moto stuff for the last two or three years as I have been doing F1, but these WIP's are very inspirational and make me want to put one next in line! I'm learning a lot by looking at the great moto builds on this forum. Keep up the good work.
