Haha yes it's an R1. 2011 model actually - believe it or not I bought it second hand in 2011, with 740km on the clock :O saved myself thousands on a new one. Apparently, the first owner's wife didn't find it comfortable to pillion on... lol...
If you look closely in the background you can see my racebike stored on the shelving unit behind the car too - it needs a new motor.
Always liked the old school ZX7's - such a pity Kawasaki moved away from the 750cc class

Air pockets won't 'lift' out of the glass. You have to find them and open them up and fill them. Most likely in the gel coat. A good strong light underneath will make them shine like a little bulb in the glass. God luck.

Thank you, any bodywork tips (any tips at all for that matter) are greatly appreciated! I am finding since getting it home, several 'bubbles' of gelcoat have appeared - i've been removing the affected bits as I see them. Thinking I should give the car a going over with wax and grease remover quite soon. Don't know if it could even happen but I'm paranoid about release wax somehow working it's way into the glass.
