It's a white base with baby blue metal flakes. In the pic it looks ok, but it's really chipped off now, around the tank is worst. I'm gonna be going Jet black all over to fit with my vehicle colour scheme's they've all been black and red when I could afford to have them sprayed.

Sometimes it can be quite costly, but I don't mind paying it if the part is in good nick. I recently bought headers from mpz on here. They were only $30, with shipping from IL took it too $100 all in all.

 

Well sorry for the lack of updates, work has been killing me so I havn't had anytime to spend at the shop with my girl. Let's get this rolling with what I've done recently;

New discs are on, pictures as promised sorry none of the front they are the same just a bit bigger



New header's fitted; (thanks again mpz!)



This is what she looks like at the moment, just minus the carbs they are at home in bits haha



And finally Jess in her new home, i've cleaned up a bit since this photo though! (that scooter is gone at last, and I finally fixed the main light, please excuse my temp one on the side)

 

Wow, that's an amazing undertaking! How's it going? Curious to see updates.

 

That poor rear end it really needs a thorough cleaning. I found that for mine as it was also pretty bad that a 'soft' wire brush preferably brass will do a AWESOME job getting oxidized corrosion off aluminum and stainless without damaging the metal at all. Just FYI

 

Very nice build/repair thread. Can't wait to see the final product.

 

^ Same here! Seems we get some new members who start these types of threads - then, disappear. Of course, we know our Shueisha won't be that way. ;-)

 

Agreed.. There have been some great projects on here but sometimes members seem to disappear at times..
