Next we need to do a little body work and filling. The front nose cone fairing used to have a removable number plate panel that could come off to uncover the headlight if it was installed. Since the bike will never be on the street, we decided to use a fiberglass plate to fill the hole. After it was bonded in, I had a fair amount of filling to do to get the contours right. Several light coats of fine body filler were used to build up the area where the plate was installed.

The front fender also needed some attention since it is old and had numerous cracks in the fiberglass. I used a special epoxy to fill and strengthen the areas that will be clamped to the fork tubes.
