Dear Listers, I've been working hard on the front, fixed fairing around the windscreen this week. Literally, I've been dreading this job more than ANY other on this project. Tonight I sanded though the first layer of electrical tape and in one little spot the second layer started to come up, so I had to pull all of the electrical tape off and so I was able to check out the actual fiberglass fairing after two days of sanding! Yahoo! It came out nearly perfect!! Not bad for creating a fairing out of nothing! The process described in the manual really does work amazingly well. I followed it to the tee up to this point. Now I have to retape everything, add a layer of resin mixed with filler, then final sand the whole thing. Should be pretty straight forward, but a couple of days worth of work. Almost done...
