I would have to agree with Tim. I'm a little surprised that your R/Rf is 27/32. Are the images representative of the entire model/map fits, or a small section of it?
Best wishes,

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] visible side-chains but breaks in main-chain
Dear V,
your map still looks quite poor and disconnected. Maybe you could improve your overall model before you worry about such detailed questions like main chain vs. side chain density.
If your resolution is not too poor, you could try rebuilding your model with shelxe, or buccanner, or phenix, or ...
Regards,
Tim
