So i used hightemp paint and did a lot of masking some polishing.

For the cooling fins i sanded down the edges to show the metal and kinda give it a cool highlight.

 

that looks great, nice work

 

looks good...

now quit working on that thing and ride it

 

hell i rode it tonight. this is my spare motor.

 

oh, well then.. rock out with your **** out :YEAH

nice gixxer in the back.. is that an original alstare or is it painted? thats one of my favorite bikes of all time

 

Its a custom replica done on a 97 srad. If interesed you can check out the whole project on my site. http://www.r-brad.com/bikepics/_srad/srad.html

 

didnt think it was original.. either way, its pimpin'

 

now that I look at those pictures your bike looks very familiar

I think you purchased that decal kit from me off ebay

 

Yup thats right. that was me.

 

did you buy the 1000 kit from me too? I just noticed that one as well...

shiiiit.. buy some more, I'm broke right now

 

No at the time i put that one together you didnt have a kit for it. I just called up most of the vendors and asked for decals. most of them just sent them to me. others i found here and there. The Yosh decal i found at Laguna Seca Superbike weekend at the Yosh tent. Trust me if you had the kit when i was putting mine together i would have bought it in a heart beat. It was a pain in the *** finding all of those.

 

Nice job, Did you take any of it apart before painting?

 

Just took the side covers off thats all.

 

That thing looks bada$$!
-E

 

reply after you ride it for awhile and tell us if the paint stuck or not please...looks pimp

 

looks good .........ummmmm........i might have to be a copycat

 

Brad that **** is straight up BOSS. i wish i had the time and energy to do mine.

 

i second that!
