Bike is still apart, Going to slap on new brake pads and steel braided brake lines this week. Then chop the fender and add a side mount plate and brake light. Tell me what you think, Thanks

 

Looks awesome, great job. What kind of paint are you using, I've got to repaint my forks soon. I used black Hammerite and it seems to hold up quite well.

you know I was pissed, I used rustoleum flat black enamel on the mags, and those turned out great, almost looks like powdercoat finish, but for the forks I wanted to go Gloss black, so I got this rustoleum automotive paint (gloss black) and it sucked. The paint started running as soon as I shot it, I had to sand the forks back down and respray. It wasn't too much work, but it just pissed me off that they advertise it as "Automotive" paint and its just ****. I went with rustolem becuase I have painted my wheels on my subaru WRX with the flat black and it looked awesome, Never had them fade or chip. Of course a lot went into the prep work.

 

It odd I have had issues before with their "automotive" paint and just stopped using it. Duplicolor makes a decent one, but there is a place back home that will put actual car paint in a rattle can. A little more expensive but amazing results.
