Default The Weekend Project

Well shes naked i began taking her apart wednesday night. Then a storm front came threw so it got cold and i moved the bike into the front room. I dont recommend reving it to 15k when your wife is sleeping. She didnt find it nearly as funny as i did. I went to the paint store got the best products IMO ppg and im starting prep this morning. I dont want to give to many details because i will post pics as we are doing it all this week Here are a few so far


In the front room


The view of both my projects Twin turbo silverado in the background.

anyways stay tuned more to come this weekend

Hmmm, I think you're taking over from 2004SSS as "Dude I envy the most" Hope the dog doesn't scratch your windscreen when he goes to eat.

there is nothing gaughty about a all black paint job with a subtle metalic blue flake im not polishing it im not stretching it just matching the truck. Nothing wrong with going fast and lookin good. stock is boring most likely going FI with the bike too

Haha well matching the truck that's alright, turbo on a bike I'm gonna call you stupid for the simple fact crotch rockets aren't just made to do 180 in a straight line on the freeway cuz you look stupid doing it and it's a nice way to end up on the news I guess.

Cool tho man, ride safe tho, wear that lid for the love of Christ

And of course not saying you're that guy just voicing my opinion so other people don't give the label to all sport bike riders

Tinted the head lamp lightly and the tails. Had issues with the windscreen and rear side markers taking paint. hiccupps are expected. 3 coats of base 2 heavy coats of clear. The blue shows up for the camera because of the flash but its a ghost flake. We did go a little heavier than my truck on the flake. Tomorrow we will wet sand and polish and it will have a show quality finish. and if any retard leans on my bike they will be instanly back handed
