  • New from Cincinnati

    Hey, cats and kittens! I just picked up a 1988 600. I haven't ridden in about 7 years, so I figure it was about time to start again.
    Right now, it is primer white. It runs strong, but I like to go through a bike pretty thoroughly before I ride it. I have pulled the carbs and am rebuilding them. New plugs and a rear tire next. Then, after I put some mirrors on and remove the rear fender, I will be vinyl wrapping it later this week. I will post up some progress pics as I go. Anyways, nice to meet you all and here she is:

                OKay, I'm guessing you've wrapped before, but... I just finished wrapping my 91 katana in black carbon-fiber vinyl. the "air intakes" directly beneath the front turn signals were... challenging. I screwed up the first time and had to rip the whole sheet off and start over. Glad I ordered a lot of "extra." The second time I STARTED at the intakes, and that seemed to make all the difference in the world. Just sayin'...

                  I am in Colerain Twp.

                  Yeah, you really need 3m primer and lots of heat for those tight curves.
