No pics but the work continues.
The carbs are installed and the bike is running again. I patched the fairing, ripped out the air solenoid system and fab up a catch bottle in the battery box for all the drain tubes and breather lines.
I just need to install some screws in the steering stops so I don't break my thumbs off in a tank slapper, install some new brake pads and bleed the brakes again, flush the antifreeze out and replace it with water wetter, mount up the fairings and switch to some newer take-offs. Still a bunch of little things but it's coming along.. better be ready in time as May 1st is coming quick!

Worked on it last night after the kids went to bed. The catch bottle has been installed, the steering stops are all done, the new pads are installed and the coolant has been flushed out. I quickly mounted the tail, but I think i'm going to pull it off and add some seat padding, there's this huge gap from where the pad ends and the tank begins, it's not a big deal but my ocd says I don't like it.
All that's left is to mount the upper, some safety wiring, adjust the controls, adjust the suspension and put some new take offs on.

Getting there! which good because I'm need to finish the DRZ and the 250 ASAP! The first PCMRC date is next week..
