Paint..

I dunno bud, it takes me ages to turn it out...flatted it out again this morning ( three hours) working my way through from 400 to 2500grit, then didn't finish work til seven so was out giving it final lacquer ( eight coats) tonight. Hoping to have it finished ready for Friday night bike club meet, the missus can't wait to try it

 Very nice work  and well done to get to that standard in such a short time ,keep at it and you'll get even  more adventurous . I was a paint sprayer for 24 years in main dealers and have done many bikes in the past but I'm not in the trade anymore but you have lit the touch paper for me again to resurrect my skills

Cheers dude, and go for it mate!
I got quoted eight hundred sovs for a pukka show  z1b paint job...gotta be worth getting into it again mate, even if you just do it on the side
Got some period tank badges, them little details make a lot of difference

First time I've had a proper look at this thread - Ogri, that is an amazing achievement for such a short time at it! Well worth the time and effort you have put into it I'd say

Been treating it again today nick, dyna coils and Taylor leads, we do look after the ones we love don't we...

Yep, it's made a massive difference, veeeerrrry nice!

Coils and leads eh? Where does the spending stop?!     

Of course, we all know, when it comes to bikes, it never stops. Affairs of the heart
