Do you guys have any helpful tips on applying the helmet decal? Mine has a lot of creases and the decals do not want to stay flat.
TIA.

That's nice. Now can you use an F103 battery holder for this chassis? The EF109 looks nice as well. Same question about the battery holder for this one.

I was referring to this battery holder.

Has anyone tried this, if so what did you use.

Thanks

what part do I need to convert metal antenna pole to regular tube antenna?

Thunder Tiger sells something like this for their DUCATI bikes. The switch area, if you have the F103 battery holder, might be a good place to mount this.

If you want it mounted above the damper, this might work too.
