Post fresh look...

I haven't done much to my bike this winter.
I cleaned it up a bit (dust is all over it again), changed the oil, new back tire & chain and sprockets are coming next week but I did pull off the fairings, masked off all the graphics and started sanding.
I didn't like the blue that was on it, so I went with a Mopar color... Intense Blue
I turned out pretty good (my 1st attempt at base/clear paint) but I still need to do a wet sand and buff/polish
My header was chipped and rusting, so it got scuffed and painted with high-temp paint, I'm not too sure if I'm liking the white as much as I thought I would

here's a before and after

The pipe looked good off the bike when it was 1st done but it kinda sticks out like a sore thumb now, lol.
I think even silver would have been better, either way it still looks better than rust and spots of dull chrome
