Default New paint, inspired by lambos

Finished most of the bodywork and paint. Just need to get at that rear wheel. The pics don't show it very well, but I used satin white and the light plays some cool trick on it. I got the idea from Lamborghini using satin white on their cars and it really shows off the angles in the right light. New gauge, seat foam and headlight to come, hopefully.

It looks great. I love the tail and the paint looks great offset by all the black.

My flat black paint look was inspired by your char-broil in the background

you should get that Moto GP shorty muffler from ebay and slap it on there...

That looks awesome. Agree with the comment on the exhaust though, it would really bring it all together and compliment the rear. Where at in Ohio are you?

Thanks for the compliments. Yeah customfighters is an awesome place to learn the fightering trade. Yep thats a 600rr swinger and 900rr wheel on the back. I've been thinking about slash cutting the midpipe and putting a baffle in it, its already loud as hell. I won't be paying $60 + for an exhaust tip with a clamp on it though. I'm a little south of Athens, Ohio.

Me too. We must have the same paint guy. It would look a lot cleaner with Moto-X bars. I will post mine soon.
