Tip top! I like that a lot.

To me the Castrol Honda's were iconic GP bikes of the 90s. Livery still looks great today.

Any build pics? Much special going on inside that motor?

Wow! That is incredibly nice. I like everything about it. I agree that it is so clean, I would almost hate to dirty it up. Simply awesome job!

looks fantastic. you might think about a grey/white seat cover or a straight black one tho. that red seat is clashing.

Thanks for the feed back guys I've taken out all the stock bolts and replaced with titanium and also the footrest hangers and rear brake pivot pin is ti the rear brake adjuster is factory honda. They did run them with a red seat I just wanted to keep it close to the real thing as possible.The motor has been fully stripped ti rod and force reeds hi comp piston and that's as far as I've taken it for the moment.here are a few more pics I don't intend to ride it it's only ever going to sit and be polished!

Beautiful build! Just curious, why are you using a '92 engine in a later frame?

I don't think he did. It's just a '92 look-a-like.
