finally on the road to be a fighter

GSX-600F · 03-25-2012, 12:06 PM

first of, I been sanding the frame all morning and I'm torn between polished and red (my sanding is still not done, threw on a light coat of red to see how I like it.
But I like them both >

My goals for today is to polished or paint the frame, and to take off the swinger and polish that.. and paint that calipers

I'm hopefully going to chop the subframe today too

UPDATE: Didnt get to do much today, decided to go to the beach >.< but I get get a little done.

Looks good man, what did you use to prevent overspray?

GSX-600F · 03-28-2012, 07:12 PM

I taped EVERY thing off I bought printer paper and coverd everything with masking take and paper that I didn't want pain on

There is some over spary that got under the paper but I'm not to worried about it.

Not a fan of the red frame as i think it stands out a little too much and the kat frame is,well lets say not the best looking frame to fighter but the tank looks good and as long as you like the bike that's all that matters

I Really like that Red Frame!!

I really need to get you some new headlights.

I have a set of clear dual projectors you can have. They use H3's and look better than the icky blue lenses on there now. They're fully enclosed.

Outside of that, you're making good progress, but do get that crossmember...
