Great choice. Good luck with build. The fun bit is the build never ends. There is so much temptation to keep adding bits or changing things. No regrets on building one would start again tomorrow if the oportunity ever arose.

When you have your head together on this, post us a list of what you have and for that matter what you’re looking for.
Probably find there are many like me who have some spare bits but have so far not managed to raise the enthusiasm to advertise them.

Aircon on Canam?. Iawait to see. I really only got mine on the road Sept onwards last year so was not an issue. I think it will be if we have a hot summer. I suspect I will regret not adding it. However the grass is always greener..... when you do not have something.
If you can afford it and not worried about weight put it in.

Not having aircon is the one regret I have about my canam. Imagine the scene, stuck out side Rouen on the way to lemans doing 10 mph for 2hrs the out side temp is about 34 degrees. No aircon, nice!!! On the other hand I have never been in a canam with aircon, but with the full side windows and roof on I cant imagine why it wouldnt work well.
