How come you did it in clear if you were gonna paint it? I thought clear was only for when you wanted to see the weave
I'm finally catching up on this epic work on your Husq belly pan. Your effort and attention to detail is an inspiration, and that is quite apart from the fact that I have learnt so much over the years through your channel. Your written thought at the start of the video speaks loudly, and whilst it is personal for us all, it also is a fine thought when looking after our bikes too, (but you knew that didn't you?). My bike will thank you after 18 years, and 87,000 miles of her life. Thank you for your contribution in so many positive ways and I wish you both health and happiness in your lives. Thank you
Thank you so much for your kind words... we just try to keep positive and moving forward in this crazy sometimes spiteful world... so we're glad to know that what we do is appreciated and can be of help. Enjoy safe rides on your bike and take care, D&Px
Super to see the belly pan looking so good. Great work from scratch. Love to see the haters make any of the stuff you do or do all the work on bikes you do and have done for years mate. All the best to you n your lovely lady.
Thanks mate, haters busy hating, have no time to do anything else aye.! appreciate your support.
It really suits the bike now its painted, do you intend to do anything about the centre crease where the 2 molds joined together as its much more visible now its painted.
The shape really helps balance the lol of the bike. Good job.
Thanks! mate👍 glad you approve.
Nice progression! You’re giving me inspiration to try a couple bits for my track day bike.
I meant look 😉
Looks great Del. To quote Bob Ross “ I think the crease is a happy little accident “
Exactly that BB!
a right Bobby Dazzler . 🙂
Wow Del that turned out just awesome looking. Well done.
Thanks Buddy, 👍 really appreciate your kind support, have a great weekend and ride safe.
Nice finish looks smart
Well, that seemed to work!! Others have mentioned the parting line, to be fair I think it adds to the overall styling of the item. As for the learning curve…. Well ‘Nuff said at .. Massive!! 😂. Nice one brother.
Yeah I've noticed that bruv, but when you see it in the flesh it actually isn't any form of groove, or imperfection... what it is is simply a crease down the centre where the entire front of the panel is fractionally folded towards itself, the two halves of the mould were screwed together just a little tighter than they needed to be, and that flexed the two halves very slightly away from each other giving the front of the panel that visible fold when there's a shadow across it... and as an accidental benefit it totally matches the front mud guard that has a crease right down the middle in the same way! Happy accidents aye?!
Just the ticket Del especially on something you have never done before, the shape really suits the bike from the side 👍👍
Thanks Rickard 👍 it was a fun side project and i really enjoyed the journey..
@@Moonfleet41 I could tell you did!
Wow, that finished off really well, looks like it belongs on the bike 👌
Good points about the vent hole, however, you can always put a piece of mesh effect self adhesive vinyl sheet on there after it`s painted, then coat it all in clear coat, or laquer.
Looks factory Del 👍🏻 just under £180 doesn't sound to bad for a one of a kind, have a great weekend
Thanks Col, you too mate!
No bad 1st attempt. A few bits look like the moons surface but will get battered with road debris anyway.
Came out nice 👍
Thanks buddy..really appreciate you watching.
nice job. and great song.
Well done! Fits the bike really well. Looks good now and will be even better painted later on
Wow what a fantastic job. Well done sir it looks amazing
Thank you kindly
Great work and looks stylish. And it’s original. Hats off.
Thanks buddy..
Magnific! Direct from the factory!
@@vincenttill8051 We are blind as moles, as usual ;-)
You got that profile 100% spot on. It really adds to the look of the bike. Great job.
Thanks!
The shape and lines make it look factory. Nice.
Thanks very much Tim.
Outstanding sir. Knowing when to stop is a great skill. Well done.
Never Stop Sir, that's a Beginning To...a Solution ..Anon.....
Wow It came out stunning!!!
Yes, air flow on the bottom of the engine is part of the air cooling mechanism, and blocking the flow will result some temperature to increase in the bottom engine. The part is very invested anyway, I would add air intakes from the side, or open front openings on both sides (not in front of the tire).
You went through all the steps, put in the effort, but most importantly… you absolutely nailed the aesthetics.
Love it.
Thank you so much!
I think that's a genuinely great first effort in a tricky medium, it looks stylistically right on the bike and enhances it, shame the knockers didn't take a look at the butt ugly after market belly pans available for this model before choosing to take the proverbial out of your work. Well done Sir, stay well
Thanks Steve, I wanted a style that matched the unique and quirky lines of the bike, and this was the only way i could see to get that achieved.. i learned a great deal through the experience and it will be a much simpler and more effective process when i come to do it again some day.. Thank you for your support mate.
Looks cool on the bike.
Looks sharp Del,, 👍
Thanks buddy👍
CONGRATS FROM MÉXICO !!!
I ENJOY A LOT THE WAY YOU WORK, SUPER NEAT !!!
Thank you so much 😀
Could you perhaps sell your mould to pyramid plastics or powerbronze to salvage back some costs?
Theres a thought.!
@@Moonfleet41 small market but it should also serve the 650 Terra as well 🤞
As an aside Lad ,great Music..👌🇦🇺🌄 ...
Looking good and so it should at the price BUT if you need a new 1 you have the mold already available
Good point mate.
Del, reminder of the band performing the excellent music please.
Here's a link Russ.. the track is "Utopia" www.reverbnation.com/OFFRIENDS
Perfect result. Looks factory-like. Even before the final paint job. Both thumbs up
Günter from Nürnberg
I'm watching you handle this belly pan as if it was a new born baby.
Which I guess it kinda is.
Brilliant
Nick Australia
Thanks Nick, ha ha you noticed, it was purely because the primer was still slightly soft and I wanted to get it mounted on the bike! Thanks for your kind support mate as always.
Great Video great job Del 👏👏👌👍
Thank you Chris, glad you enjoyed it
Nice to see it done. Came out nice (as usual!!!). Really suits the bike too, looks like an original part too!! Onwards and upwards!!
Thanks 👍
👍
As my late paternal Italian grandfather always said: “Walk a-proud… walk a-proud”… truly amazing work, Del! Hope Penny and you are feeling better each day! 🏍👍🏍
Sounds like a good philosophy to me Sir, We're fine and keeping well, not looking forward to the dark months, but it'll be spring after that and back to normal.. Keep safe both, and stay in touch.
@@Moonfleet41 yessir… and now my baseball season has ended until April on top of everything else! 😎 Stay strong there, Mates!
Wowza it looks incredible mounted on the bike and adds a lot to the overall look. Amazing what you can achieve when you set your mind to it. Nice to hear Utopia again great track.
Congratulations Del. 🇸🇪🇬🇧😊👋🏻
Thanks you Paul, glad you enjoyed it and I'm very happy with it for a first attempt, take care and have a great week and keep safe!
@@Moonfleet41 You to Del have a great week, stay safe. 👋🏻😊
Looks nice Del. A Blue Peter badge winging its way to you now. Lol. Drain holes are a good idea. I think some stainless steel mesh inside to stop stones flying up and rattling around inside might be a good idea though???
It's been really informative. I've made many fibreglass bits but never Kevlar. So thank you for the knowledge and entertainment ..
Looks really professional on the old wall of tv!
btw .. I think we'll leave Eddie Izzard in the green room getting " prepped" .. you're doing just fine as you are !
Peace and love brother 👍🏻☮♥️ ..
I'm now confused by the technology of commenting on two platforms at once !
👍🏻☮♥️ Best regards to Pp also .🤗♥️
Thanks for watching on the big screen brother, and now you mention it, the last time i saw Eddie, he asked me to pass his thanks on to Maude for the fashion tips.. Pp says hi and sends hugs.. have a great week old chap.. D&Pxx
@@Moonfleet41
Ha , I'll leave it there I don't want to get in trouble with the" TV" on TV ... you tube might delete this automatically ..
😣
Looks really SPORTY!! Came out very nice!! I like it!! 👍
Thanks mate 👍
It looks like a genuine part to me.Excellent .
Thank you so much.
A 10 out of 10, top job. 👌🏼👍🏻
Thank you! 👍
Looks great Del !
Glad you like it
Turned out really nice Del. Big learning curve but well worth it in the end. Thanks for sharing the process and looking forward to see what's next. Cheers.
Thanks Shaun👍 Glad you enjoyed it, i know i did, and a learned a lot in the process too. On to different things now and looking forward to getting on with the project.
Looking amazing on the bike, bud.
Watching it and then having read some other comments, I concur with the one of, "the line" down the middle from where the moulds joined.
Are you going to fill and flat back?
Either way, you must be very proud of what you've achieved.
As always, much love to yourself and PP 🤩
Thanks mate, it's been a great journey and happy to be moving on with the project now.
Thank you - I've enjoyed every step of that little journey mate - and look how spot on it turned out - not just the quality - but how it really fits with the lines of the bike! Bravo Sir (and of course Madam)! ♥
Thank you so much Mike, im glad you enjoyed it, it's been a fun adventure and im really happy with my first attempt.
yea you know what Del, that looks good painted up. fair bit of hardship making it but live and learn I suppose. will you be filling over the mold witness marks or leaving it in?
Bit like a large chin guard you get on the harleys...devoid of any implications for access to the engine etc.
Nicely done Del & looking fit as 👏👏.
Ride steady and stay safe you two 🤘
Thanks buddy. 👍
Tidy job, looks better than factory. If only you had the time to knock them out on eBay.
Thanks buddy, happy with this first attempt, lots learned for next time and happy to be moving on now.
Hard to believe it started as a cardboard cutout all those weeks ago. 👍
A great result - looks like factory Del! A very interesting series of videos - thanks.
Thank you kindly Sir, im glad you enjoyed it, it was a fantastic journey ..
I like the experimentation Del. Always a scary thought to invest heavily and not to be sure of the result or if you're happy enough with the result. I'm scared just to buy replacement parts sometimes!
Thanks so much for your kind words, and you're right, it is a leap of faith to get deep into an expensive project without any guarantee it will even turn out usable... and in that, it's more satisfying when it does.. Have a great week buddy, and keep safe. D&Pxx
Great Job
MATT from THE WORKSHOP accepted a challenge to better something 'the ordinary' Allen Millyards builds, he also made a challenge on his own channel to show us how Del should've made cables.
I challenge him 'The Narcissistic Engineer' with all his expertise in all areas of engineering processes and his engineering prowess to make a belly pan to compete with this. Go on Matt show all your rimmers how it should be done, oh and I will be watching.
I say this here because no one will ever believe this, not only has he deleted my comments, lied about me on his vids, but honored me with, 'blocking me from his channel' to be blocked is an EPIC Victory don't you think? I wear it with pride. lol.
Hi James, good to hear from you mate, and I'm sorry to see you're getting yourself tied up in this negativity again.
Just for some perspective. This year we have lost two very dear personal friends, one to a horrific bike accident, and the other to a terrible illness, plus of course my recent Heart Attack and Penny's recent knee surgery playing large in our lives... this has given us great clarity on life and negative things just don't feature anymore, there's no peace to be found in it and life truly is too short to fixate on negative people, don't you think?
You're always welcome here mate, keep safe, keep positive and keep in touch... Del
Woo hoo! Finally finished! Looks bloody good that does mate and well worth the time and effort you put into it. Congratulations!
Thanks mate👍 Happy with my first attempt.
Excellent job Del, looks factory mate. For a first-time effort, you bloody well nailed it. Penny and you have a great week, hope things are all good and going well for you both. Cheers
Thanks mate, always wonderful to hear from you, and really happy with this panel now, so I'm ready to move on to the next stage of the project! Take care and have a good week, stay safe, D&Px
so nice to have the music back for this one! nice job on that belly pan aswell, cracking bit of craftsmanship.
Thanks mate. Glad you enjoyed it.
It sure was a lengthy process , but very nice job , it looks a very well done job as always , great video sir
Thank you kindly sir, it was a pretty lengthy process for sure..
Great job fella well done. Looking forward to the rest of the work about to be commenced. Thanks :)
Thank you kindly Tony, it's been a great experience.
Not sure if I missed it in the video but what was the reason for the three holes in the bottom?
Let the rain water drain out. !
Absolutely amazing ! Best part of watching this project is learning how you took on some of the issues along the way. I knew it was gonna end up amazing! Hope you’ve been feeling better than ever!
Thank you mate, it was a fabulous journey, I enjoyed all the different steps in the process and learned a great deal... thank you for your kind wishes, I've improving every day and slowly getting back to normal... have a good week, ride safe.
look good dell.. its gone be perfect i think
Looks really good Del... I really like the lines, flows so nicely with that bike. Job well done! All my best to you, hoping you are recovering well !
Many thanks for your kind words Don, i am making a good recovery, at least it feels that way, and im happy with this result for a first attempt..
looks good mate
Looks awesome del 👍
Dang, that came out great. I know that is just a primer and not final color but that pops as is. Cant wait for the rest. Continue the awesome work
Thanks mate, i chose white primer because it's one of the possible choices for the final colour.. not decided yet..
Now to see it used and caked in dirt.
Non Recurring engineering cost vs run cost. Typically NRE is amortized across an initial production run quantity then the retail cost is reduced to be competitive with 'knock-offs'.
nice job
Reallly don't need a vent hole.
But a styling hole maybe later
Maybe, but anything you put there is gonna be a crap trap..!
Nice one del. I likey 😁
Thanks mate 👍
Great job mate, looking great, really suits the bike. ⚙️🔩🔧👍
Thanks 👍
Nice job 😎👌🏻
cheers mate.
thats the biz Del outstanding as per atb m8
Great job, but to be honest I didn’t expect anything else 👍👍👍👍👍
You are too kind Pete.
Thats cool !
Thank you Sir.
Really nice project 👌 very nice indeed :-)
Thank you! Cheers!
Great job, and super attention to the detail work, always a pleasure to watch, cheers!
Thank you very much!
That looks factory
👍👍
Hello and greetings from Sweden. Enjoy your work and diversity in projects, like it. Also please tell me what music you are playing when spraying the bellypan, really like it and would like to listen to it as well when doing garage-time.
Take care!!
