Body Panel Assembly TBR7

Nospark · 03-06-2022, 07:50 AM

I finished up the assembly of the bike and started to button it up by installing tank and body panels (fairings). The left side tank panel assembled and fit nicely but really struggling with the right side. I quite before I broke something.
Having been away from the bike a couple days I'm thinking I should loosen the Tank mounting bolt so the tank can find it's place between the left & right panels.
The initial way I've been going about it is with the tank firmly mounted first which doesn't allow any repositioning to the panels.

Anyone else been challenged by this?

I had to fight to get the front brace bolts in or even one the right side of the panal mounts. It helps to pull the frame bolt out and start it last.
