You got rid of the best stock paint job they had [X(]. Still looks good though, can't wait to see it finished.

Yeah I know, I can't believe he didn't stick with the blue front fender!

but at least all of that black and silver is gone! [8D]

It was almost amazing how hard it was and how long it took to get the stickers and glue off of everything. My buddy Silvio did an amazing job on fixing all the stress cracks in the glass front fairing, and the paint as well. That's straight out of the gun, it hasn't even been sanded and buffed yet.

Looks great... but I agree with Mikez.

How is that one piece front fairing? I am thinking about getting one.

I agree with Mikez too as far as the best original stock paint scheme, but I don't like red much, and I LOVE this new color. When it's done, it will look better than ANY 93 F2 Honda ever painted, [8D]
I really don't care for this one piece fairing too much, but now that I've shaved the turn signal bumps off of it, I probably won't switch back to the stock one. I might consider going to an F4 one to get away from that DATED square headlamp though.

oh wow. I the first pic of the bike after being painted was half loaded and I thought you were the person that bought my bike and claimed it your work [8D]this is my old bike...





veRry close. Looks good though, I like the painted swing arm and other bits. That would have been next but I found a deal on a f4i I couldnt pass up. and my wheels/stripe were charcoal.
