Default cbr f1 painting help

so im going to street fighter my bike out. the frame has a little bit of rust. i was wondering about how would i go about painting my frame/ swing arm / subframe. do i need to drop my engine out . or is it possible to paint with the engine in it. i have yet to get my engine to start running so this would be easy for me do. let me know what you guys think.. thanks for the help

i would try to get the engine to run first and then you can find out what other problems you have. i would also suggest dropping the engine for painting the frame.

Hi there, i definately reco takin the lump out first, stripping it all right down to bare frame is the only way to do a proper job. What bike is it your street fightering? I've just gota 600 im gonna streetfighter, as soon as i've finished my sons crosser! Ben.
