All black with the tank sould look pretty good.

OR...




Carry the stripes thru the front fender. Smudge the wing on the tank down into the white. Do the rest black.

You could rattlecan that pretty easy.

Leave as much of the factory primer as you can. But sand and sand good. Thin coats, wet sand in between, and use a tack cloth. Give the paint ample time to dry between coats.

Do it right and take your time it will look every bit as good as a shop.
That idea looks good but the tail needs something to break up all that black a little bit. add the "HONDA" logo in white or red on the lower pieces at the bottomJust my opinion.

Lookin' good tao, paint looks like it's got a good finish to it.So, how'd you get your license plate inside there? Does it light?

You've done a nice job of re-covering that seat, too. Your original however, was PFC!

ORIGINAL: FNQuickF2

Tuck-n-roll upholstery...CLASSIC!
Yeah, I kinda liked it too.

What's that 'can of red-bull' above and parallel to your exhaust? I've seen that on a few other F2's, but I don't have one.

the original had a tear in it, plus it was a little retro IMO, i still have it if you want it, hahah

i angled the existing licenseplate light inward so it shines on the inside of my bike, and the plate is actually mounted to the seat, where it drops down, fits the plate perfectly. just drill some holes. and i cut off everything else in the back.

and the redbull can covers that oddly placed canister for the rearshock
