Wrap the wiring near the headlight with food wrap.　It is waterproof.

The mounting position of the cowl and stay is slightly misaligned, so adjustment is required.

Take a mold with aluminum foil and make a spacer.

I’m thinking of a light and soft spacer.

I’m building a motorcycles for Prince “Purple Rain”（No. 14） ☆Click here for the First article ☆ ☆Click here for the completed motorcycle☆ I thought there was no part to fix the headlight lens, but there was. It seems to cover this ring from the top of the lens and fix it with a screw.　I didn’t know this method last time. Finally, attach the headlight to the cowling.　Mask the cowling so that it is not damaged. It has a unique retro feel not found in recent motorcycles.　It’s like a living creature.
