Honda Super Hawk IIIR CB 400N

Hello to everyone!!
This is my first post on AF.
I have started a new project from Aoshima in 1/12 scale.The kit is an old one.It needs some extras and a lot of photos from the real thing.
Here we go...
The box art is nice...



The kit's pieces cutted from sprue...



And some dry fit to see...how it looks...



The rear shock absorbers need to look more realistic so I made the springs from wire the outer tube from Evergreen and the pistons from a clip...



The headlight and the chainwheels are from the spare box.Cut and adjust to size...The engine's headcover received a connection for the breather pipe...And the carburators received the connections for the fuel and overflow lines...



The exhausts after some extras...


And the classical drilling of the discbrake plates...


Thanks for your time Elias...

Nice clean work!! I also do a 'dry fit' so it's clear
what the issues will be. Can't wait to see more...
