nice one peeps for the great comments

i didnt know if it would be welcomed or not as its a car forum n all but i know a lot of people have bikes as well as cars so thought why not? whats the worst that could happen? lmao

 

well my bike is painted only on the frame n tank on those pics due to me wanting to do something different

 

i will be sorting out the fenders and the oil tank at some point soon

 

my bike isnt actually painted as such its got loads and loads of coats of laquer on it with a hint of black so its still got a great shine but you can see all the welds n scorch marks n the blueing on the parts inc all the rust type effect is real not just left outside to rust its actually from flatting n wet sanding etc to get the desired effect

 

its probably got more hassle n time in it that a normal paint job lol

 

great to see other members with bikes out there (sorry motorbikes lol nice one class one lmao ) and hopefully be out on mine in the summer months as its still poo weather at the mo

 

thanks again

i basically built this as to be a more steady rider and its certainly paid off lol

 

as i also have had the usual blades n r1s plus i had a great gixxer 1400 but i have been riding since i was 5yrs old and my folks owned a custom harley shop so its in my blood i suppose n i kinda rebelled a lot by having rice burners so now im happy with the chop n roll on summer

 

take care all the bikers on here as we all know how bad it gets at 160+ ;)lmao

Just wondering if any of the members on here are bikers......
For longer than I'd care to admit. Let's just say when I bought my first bike you could buy a Gold Star or a Vincent for 100 quid...... and ride it without a helmet :) Never been without a bike since.

performs best on the really windy, bendy roads. Just like the D16 into Florac:)
