Default Kandy Paint in Process

HOK Cobalt Blue. Finally, after a crash in 2009, I'm making progress on getting the King back on the road. Bike was totaled by insurance due to the engine guard tab being bent. Bought it back, re-framing it, new paint job in process, a few bolt on parts and new handle bars and I'll finally be back in the saddle.

Below is the tank- HOK Kandy Cobalt Blue over Metallic Silver. Next is two layers of subtle flames. Thanks to everyone who answered my questions and helped me out with parts and advise during the recovery process. I had to post cause I'm bustin at the seams to finally get my bike back. Still 3 or 4 weeks to go...

Had my bike done in HOK Kandy last year after an unfortunate run-in with a gravel covered road. Inside lighting does not do justice to the HOK paints, if you like in now wait until some sunlight hits that bad boy. Keep posting pics as it comes along!!

If you think it looks good now just wait till he finally hits it with the clear.

What type of flames? Traditional, ghost, realistic, tribal? What color?
