pics of my bikes progress/UPDATED/COMPLETE
I have never painted anything in my life so it is taking sometime.I have removed all fairing/gas tank. found alot of cracks I had to fix.I then used icing 3 times to smooth everything out.Washed everything.applied 5 layers of primer and wetsanded it down.Cleaned it now I'm on painting.5 coats of paint and applied 4 coats of clear.I have 4 pieces painted/cleared. Now I have to wetsand the clearcoat to get the orange peel out.Here are some pics . Last pics are cloudy for the wetsanding.I have done this all by myself with my g/f help. Eb paint has given me alot of tips.Good people.I have to go see him tommorow to ask how to buff it now lol duh.I'll have more pics up soon and hope to get her done by next weekend.That is if my new custom made lights get done in time

Looks good. Can't wait to see the end result. If memory serves, you where thinking of carbon fiber a while back. Did you abandon that idea?

RE: pics of my bikes progress
cause I couldn't find a 2 seater rear cowl nor undertail nor gas tank. Gave up

When you're posting theres a little picture of mountains right above the text entering area on the right side, click on that, paste your picture link in the box that pops up. Bingo. |
