Great looking build.
You may want to add a stiffening rib up the side of the clutch and accelerator pedal. I bent my clutch pedal over easily as designed but a little 3mm
rib on one side has made it nice and stiff.

Same power as a diesel engine, same noise, but it's for the begining, don't worry, the futur engine will be more than 200 bhp(i hope
250!), for just a 1.6 l.

It's raining a lot in France so i made some stuff
Cycle wing bracket and cut it for an agressive look
Put the rear muddgards
There's a lot of space between the tyre and the muddguard, i can install larger tyre later.
bad ass! 1,73m!
No courage for the second cycle wing...
