however...this silver surfer turd has deeper pockets than me
but he still has a gay Z50 worth $3000
Looks nice.
Process is degrease with paint thinner. Sand with 400 grit. Wipe with more paint thinner.Prime prime prime. Paint that **** then. Put it back together.
Mine is not holding up worth a damn but I didn't want to press out the swingarm bearings for powdercoat. When it rubs off I just spray it again. No big deal.
Not to bite your thread but here is a gloss black frame and forks.

that **** looks bad ***. congrats. i esp. like that key relocation, how does it fit? would it be possible to cut a small notch for the tab and have it fit perfectly? that'd be the ****, but i wouldn't want it all loose and dangling in there. looks real nice, but mines gonna look much better , you just wait... i should have everything done in a month, stay tuned for pics.
oh yeah and what is the little black box that connects the case breather hose to the airbox? how does it work and is the box necessary or could you just run a vaccuum line to the airbox itself?

other wize that will never happen again 
Chain lube is over rated on a bicycle chain
key
I need to move my key there. That looks like a good idea. With my homemade frame brace its really hard to shut the engine off. BTW its really easy to make a frame brace the cheap way. Just get a 1 1/2in exhaust clamp, weld a threaded rod to it. Then bolt a flat bar to it and the other end to the top engine mount bolt. Ill post some pics later. I got the idea from redrr.
