I've been trying to build my bike up to check that everything is there as it came in boxes but i'm not sure exactly where all the little bracket's fix on or where pipe's run. I was wondering if anyone here had some pic's of thier bike's stripped down ? I would like the overall bike to look original apart from my mod's, but at the moment it look's like something from scrapheap challenge !lol.

Have you downloaded the workshop manual from Alex's site? It has some really useful routing guides. You might need to be more specific with th brackets  - opr post up some pic's?, as there are quite a few if you are keeping it stock-ish.

Alex's site ? Which one is that ? Ive been looking at the part cataloge download's to check if i have the right bit's but it's hard to work out the route's. I have not got pic's at the moment because ive just stripped it down so i can polish the frame. Going to powder coat over the polished ally with a orange candy laquer which should look nice !
Im not in a rush so i want to do it right. The more info i can get the better. Dont wont to be taking thing's apart over and over again, possibly damaging the paint work.
Looked through the gallery and there is alot to inspire me, no really modded bike's though ? I hope what i intend to do paint wise is not sacralidge !

Alex's 3XV downloads page

Workshop manual is at the top.

No comment on the candy lacquer... Whatever floats your canoe though I suppose ???. And it might stop it getting pinched of course... :D

Here are a few pics to help. If there is a specific area you need I'll see what I have. These were taken 4 years ago when I stripped the bike down for racing.

Does anyone know if you can get new rad's ? I've noticed the one i have has been dropped and is crooked.

Now you come to mention it, mine's crooked too !! Noticed it when I removed it during the strip down to remove my engine. I examined it, but there's no evidence of any heavy contact !?
Mine looks as if it was built up crooked !!  :O
