Oil cooler pipe retention plates. Cerakoted in "Glacier Silver"
Here's the bike as it currently stands. Note the MotoCorse rear frame plugs. The front frame bolts are only temporary until the MotoCorse frame plugs arrive to replace them.
And here is a gratuitous shot of the rear linkage again. It's a thing of beauty.

Time to crack on by turning my attention to the cooling system and assemble the new Evotech Performance "EP" edition guards. Essentially the same as standard but with a large logo on the radiator guard and a revised logo and spacer fittings on the oil cooler guard.
With the spacer rubbers fitted. Two additional (hidden) spacers clip into the back of the logo plate on the oil cooler
Here is the radiator and oil cooler after Cerakotiing (Glacier Satin Black).
Silicon bungs, prevent any residual oil from leaking out until I am ready to connect the lines.
The radiator guard contrasts well against the black Cerakote finish
Rubber dampers and steel bushings need to be refitted, then I can assemble both the radiator and the cooler back onto the shroud, as well as the cooling fan assembly.
Here's the net result. Still a few mods to make to some of the coolant lines (remaining part of the Samco kit) but it is largely ready to go back on the bike.
M5 stainless steel flanged nuts (Stig Fasteners) torqued to 5Nm
This tie wrap holds the clutch line to the top of the radiator bracket and is a complete PIA to secure if you don't pre-feed the tie wrap in first.
