Not many more interesting pictures to post, but I did get her started up. The only way I can describe the exhaust note is "hyperidiculus". I have most of the wiring harness installed along with the in-gear display and the flatshifter control harness. Brake lines are mostly done, just waiting for the callipers to arrive. I might be finishing the build ahead of schedule but the 40cm of snow that fell two days ago was just a reminder that winter is here until April....

I made a nice rad fan support, I've used those push threw fasteners before and I just hate them.

Everything is in the tunel: coolant lines, throttle cable, shifter cable, clutch line, fuel line, brake line...
