Warren I may take you up on the loan of the moulds, I had a 05 Raga rep 300 gas gas and i think it had control over me rather than the other way round RegardsChris Ha Ha, your welcome to use the moulds. My 300 Pro has a flywheel weight fitted and its still a bit too "snappy" for this old timer. My son has a 10 Raga and gets it to do things I can only dream of, oh to be young and talented. Just a shame the frame keeps cracking at the headstock, otherwise its an awesome bike. Warren Carbon Copies Ltd

It's always really hard to describe to people how they will turn out as it varies very slightly with resin and process. I've always thought the blue carbons turn out very aquamarine with a bit of green hue. Something i knocked up roughly for a mate for xmas: I agree Warren the coloured fabrics can look look great in the right application, the red and green are more subdued when filled with resin compared to the blue.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 346, Visits: 4.4K	Looks great, I had to do a medium flex kart floor last week with blue carbon to match the teams colour scheme, I always find the coloured fabric so difficult to get the weave straight as any snag shows up so much more than normal carbon and yours looks spot on for a complex shape. Haven't polished this yet as I didn't use a mould to make it, took it straight from the original
