Fingers crossed its engine back day

Whilst I hope its coming back to home today if I am honest I am not 100% sure and not excited with expectation..
In the meantime my number plate back arrived in the post so I can use my original plate on the bracket whilst I try to figure out how I can replicate the original graphic of the shop and Cagiva elephant into either a image file or so I can print a decal of it.

My decals arrived today for the tank front screen and seat cowl from Image Works all for the price of £18 inc post. The decals also have the curve in the printing for the tank curves unlike some replicas straight.

I made a decision to get the yellow front fairing painted as the red one is in good order and tbh I can sell a red one easier than yellow if needed.
The seat cowl also though in good order has a few chips and some paint down to primer on under edges and a scabby bit on the rear flat edge.
Whilst I know the original ones I think were not lacquered over these will be this time as I want them protected.

So hopefully later today before 5:00 pm I will get the call to pick up and dump the paintwork off together.
