one small bit of advise

take the harness of the flimsy aluminium strut brace.... and mount them properly

if you crash, you will die, and have a strut brace imbedded in the back of your head

Nice Wasn't convinced when i just saw the night pics, but looks smart in the day! As has been previously mentioned though, secure the harnesses somewhere slightly stronger - especially as they are now what you use to hold yourself in!
