Thanks Jon! I still have that Chevy Army truck on the bench but yard work has arrived. I went to Clarkston with Dad today to his youngest brothers house who just lost his wife. Long drive for sure but did drive through Moscow on the way home to his home.

UPDATE: Am I posting too many updates? Maybe its because I was away for so long I'm making up for it. Anyway. todays update evolves electrical and a discussion I have with myself concerning what level of realism is appropriate for the current project. In this build ultra has been the benchmark so I go the extra mile to be as accurate as possible. In other projects I might focus my attention elsewhere like if its a diorama. In that case I may add some wiring but only what you can see. This prevents me from getting burnt out wasting time on things that aren't that important. I hope that made sense. Does anyone else approach a build that way or am I just weird? Happy modeling everyone
Wires, wires and more wires. It was as big challenge looking at a wring diagram while building but I learned a couple of new tricks in the process.
The black box is the ABS system

UPDATE: Now that the handlebars are done we now focus on the headlight and wiring harness for the front section of the Ducati. I also got some of the small elements like the key. One of the most time consuming and challenging stages of the build is next. The main electrical system. After that we are done with the main build, That's it for now, God bless all of you.
