Possible new paint???
#37
Thanks everyone. This project took a little longer then I expected but it also came out much better then I though it would. There are a couple tiny imperfections on the tank but they are not noticeable unless you are staring up close for a while.
This paint only has to last until next April which is when I will be heading back to the States. I am already anticipating the paint getting damaged during shipment which is what happened when I shipped the bike over here to England. That is the main reason I went DIY instead of having a pro do it. I would have hated spending big bucks on paint only to have it get damaged in shipment. My plan is to have it painted professionally the same color and with a matte clear once I'm back in the States. I'll probably also have it pin striped some after the repaint. So for now I'm gonna rock the garage paint.

Looks fantastic ... great work ...
Although I love the black bike as much as the next guy, I think when you get it done later you should switch up ... maybe get it done in Air Force blue ... or olive drab ...? Or brown ... think about like muddyape's bike ...
