Go for it man always glad to help out and share any ideas. i posted pics on how to mask them off for paint. On the rims i just masked off the rough areas of the inner rim with the spoked covered up the shine outers and sprayed it. Let me know if you need any help be glad to help you threw it.

i had to have ear surgery today and was put on oxycotin so needless to say i didnt get much done on the bike today, i managed to count and inspect all the new fairing and install a couple of pieces but still alot of work to be done to her before she can hit the streets.

There are some def. fitment issues with the chinese plastics , paint job looks great though. Ill have to do some minor modification to get everything installed correctly though. and i still have wiring to do, so she wont be finished for another couple weeks while i recover from the surgery.

Just some updated pics, i finally got the front brake calipers installed. i bought a different rear stand so i put orange patches of vinyl on the swing arm to keep the stand from scratching it up. Working on putting the nose back together and wiring in the diodes for the signal lights(one of the mounts on the fairing for the headlight brok, had to epoxy it backtogether)

worked on the blades turn signal wiring some today, i put in 2 brand new turn signal relays and still it wont work. I think my problem might be coming from the switch its self i have replaced everything else so i guess thats the only thing it can be now. Got the exhaust pipe polished out again looks nice and shiny now, never again will this bike be treated like it was its a shame people dont treat thier bikes better.

Mine is too,lol but its not to awful bad so far just witing my new fairing bolt kit should be delivered here in a little bit so thats when ill start mounting all the rest of the plastic. The tail light was the hardest so far and i have some overlap were the pieces go over each other between the seats that i will have to trim up. ill let you know later on i plan on getting most of the plastic on today when the bolt kit arrives. I polished out the headlight was looking kinda old so i brought some life back to it and also someone had gotten black paint overspray on it so i got it all cleaned up. That position light that sits over the headlight does anyone even know whats the crap thats for???lol

Hey JC i got my bolt it in for some reason they give a bunch of stuff you dont need, i shot a pic off it. And yes that center nut was a chore to get in along with the tail light section i still have to do some trimming fairing is in the way of shifter and too much overlap between the seats. Other than that they look pretty good. Here are some pics

Im still waiting for a few things, i had some custom made seat covers ordered for it and alarm system with some other cool things, and i still have to match the paint and spray the fuel tank orange and put the honda wings on it. should be complete within a couple of weeks hopefully.

One more Blade brought back to life

still got little odds and ends things to be done, like the gas cap paint and i got the fairing cut out were it was either in the way (shifter) or there was to much (btween the seats) ill be going next week to get the paint matched so i can spray the fuel tank. get the signal lights fixed and put on the new seat covers when they come in (i removed the old cover tonight) and i might just be able to get some riding in.

She's going to look like a new bike when you're finished, can't wait to see the end product, well done mate.
