Default winter tidy up

Ok so i`ve had the f4 about 6 months. she`d been put down by the previous owner with a few little things i had her registed been flying around on her since but never really been happy with it`s road rash paint job. i`ve ordered a new fairing kit and started repairing every thing while wainting for them to arrive. i`ll keep posting picks up as she comes together over the next couple weeks.

heres some more picks of the work of carried out. I`ve panel beated the tank and undercoated. painted rims satin black and added red reflective rim tape, painted calipers peg brackets and top triple clamp in the satin black also considering painting the forks in the black?. attached a photo of the new fairings the side will be getting a custom bottom wrap not sure yet so open to ideas.

Great job! It looks nice and clean. Judging from the picture with the tank you have a paint shop or just your own garage?
