painting my bike.. (Read 7 times)

threezukes Ex Member	painting my bike.. 09/03/05 at 03:11:14 Everything is primed and ready to go, so far I just painted the side piece to get an idea of the color. Its the new military camuflage color "sand dune". I like the color, but I'm wondering if its gonna match with the crome and black frame..

Thats the base coat. I'm still thinking about whether or not I want to clear coat it, because the only clear coat I can get around here is Krylon "crystal clear". I want to have the flat look and not make it shiny.

I finished painting everything and while I had the bike apart I also cleaned the carb, changed to a 135 main jet, and moved the white spacer clip down a notch. As soon as it stops raining :'(, I'll take it out for a spin and a photo shoot, but thats not gonna be for a while since its been raining for two days straight and the weather report says that its gonna keep raining for another two...arghh...typhoon season...
