Id just have the paintjob with a subtle 443 on it.
No made up names.

I tend to agree; less is more

Bellmouths on, have to see how they perform as there's not much space but the air filter is a much better fit with them on.
Need to relocate the carb overflow catch tank

Cheers mate, the bike is away at the moment being painted
Gone for this but proper yam blue instead of the red, 443 where it says TZ and no big Yamaha decal. Wheels stay gold and mudguard/hugger stay unpainted carbon
I just hope it comes out like it is in my head :p
Also got different needles to try in carbs and more jets, bell mouths and I'm retro fitting a TPS so I can have a much more accurate ignition map. Once that's fitted and working I'll be going back on the dyno, I will be happy with the same peak figures but smoother on the throttle/less of a hole in the mid range, although I'd be surprised if it doesn't gain a bit at peak too.

Clothes on, pleased with the outcome
Got a few miles in and the flat spot found on the dyno is quite pronounced on the road, it feels like it needs a good tooth off the front or a few on the back as well, I'm cruising around in second at the moment which isn't ideal.
Plenty to improve but at least it can be ridden.

That looks properly ace mate, you must be well chuffed with it and very proud of yourself
Honestly, very envious of that. What a lovely looking thing
