    @15:20 there's a much easier, cleaner and better way to do this.
    Arrange pieces of dry cloth that has been cut to fit the mould.
    Paint mold with resin. Apply pieces of dry cloth. Dab with resin, using a paint rush, removing all air pockets.

    There is a company, I believe in California, that makes all sorts of motorcycle fairings. From stock to custom pieces like what Ian created. All sorts of cafe racer and street fighter. Not just universal fit either but model specific. I have not bought anything yet, so I can't speak of their quality. I am 90% ready to bite the bullet and purchase a full race body for my early Buell. From what I've seen of the prices, they are very reasonable. The full body for my Buell is just over a grand. The name of the company is "Air Tech"
    I believe they are worth a look. If anyone knows of any similar manufacturer, could you let me know. Thanks.

    How does one make a Harley Sportster into a Kawasski four? The thumbnail. Obviously he started on the Harley and finished on the other. Ian keeping period correct? Hmm.

    That looks like a non-adjustable mag base and the backfire out the exhaust indicates retarded timing. Do thyself a favor and run a Joe Hunt adjustable base, they're cheap and solve the problem. The fixed bases cost power because the timing must be too far advanced for best starting while too retarded for best power in order to start. Your knee will thank you as will the rather delicate Sporty kicker ratchet.
    The carb fire is a case of not knowing better and installing the air filter every time. Once the accel pump squirt is confirmed there's no need to look inside.
    Full procedure since noobs will read this: ALWAYS secure the intake manifold (which you aligned to the heads when torquing them in place) then attach carb ( WITH CARB BRACE (on all Sportsters except Evos running the glorious Ram Jett solid intake, look for those stamped "S") then install your air filter (K&Ns last decades) which also acts as a flame arrestor.
    Not here, but elsewhere there seems to be a revival of the deeply stoopid custom of not running air filters at all because much of the modern custom world just copies everything seen in the past whether it was wise or not. The xlforum (easily the best online Sportster resource) and its companion Sportsterpedia are worth visiting.

    That guy kai who writes reviews seems like a stereotypical Harley fan boy, don't get me wrong I like Harleys and all kinds of bikes, old 2 strokes, cafe racers, choppers etc but he seems like the kind of guy to have matching Harley Davidson riding gear and is kinda lacking in the imagination department when it comes to custom bikes or just anything that is not stock or bolt on. Just my opinion
