Thanks guys for ya comments, just to answer some of you questions,
The brakes are hi spec front and rear calipers, the discs are 325 mm on the front, yes big but with no servo and hand controls they still need a lot
of pressure as there is a lot of flex on the way down to the pedal , driving with just your left hand at speed is hard work.
The screen is from carbon mods fits a westfield and fits pretty good on the mk it just leaves a slight gap at both the edges.
The hand controls are bolted underneath the steering rack, i removed them from my last motobility car they took a lot of adjustment, as you can see in
the 4th pic down, the bar next to the steeerin wheel you pull it towards you to accelrate and push it to brake and its connected to the pedal, i made
a new bar to bend round the roll cage and round the steerin wheel, as 14000rpm is a lot of acceleration, and the brake needs about 3 inch to push it
so a bit of room was needed, and where you mount it on the pedal denotes the distance due to leverage. When you pull the accelrator it counteracts and
pushes down, when you push it it brakes but there is a slider on the accelerator so it doesn push it, and when you pull the accelerator the brake bar
is on a slider so it pull the brake pedal backwards.
The akro can was from a suzuki gsxr 1000 but it was on the right hand side of the bike but cause its tri oval i could put it on this side and bought
some stickers, cut down the original pipe and had it welded to move the springs, its straight through, and pops on decelration, i only bought it last
week
The seats are form corbeau and are exige spec as they had the mold, they weren cheap in any way but the only ones that would fit in the 43cm gap, the
fibreglass ones were no good as i have no bum muscles and back ache, i wanted something different.

You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one
portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.

Stunning motor mate, really like it. Its similar to what im looking to build.
I have two questions though if you dont mind me asking.
1. What sort of budget to you estimate it has cost to build.
2. Any tips to ensure you get an up to date reg plate, as opposed to old reg or Q plate.
Thanks in advance for your help.
