Hey guys and gals, as some of yall know ive been working on my 01 750 Kat, well when i first got the bike back in dec it needed some work, so I fixed a few minor problems and rode the bike. The first issue was the bike had a bent rim, i replaced that with a painted wheel vs the chrome wheels that were on the bike. Well since the chain went bad and broke my chain adjuster i decided to go and and take it all apart and paint the bike. I knew i wanted a yellow and black bike because my last bike (ninja) was that color. It wasnt untill I saw weriss_cweald bike, and fell in love with the idea. Thank you and your son for the inspiration for my bike.
Yesterday me and a buddy got started on my bike
Thats how it looked, note the painted wheel in the front and the chrome in the rear
So off came the wheels because ive decided I want them black
Front wheel off
Rear wheel off
buddy preping front wheel
Me trying to clean up the rear wheel where the chrome had flaked
prep on front wheel
Primed front
primed rear
Exhaust off to prep the rear swing arm for paint
First coat of black on front rim
And then the weather turned bad so thats as far as we got, but when i get more time the other wheel is getting black, as well as the swing arm, fender, and lower belly pan. It wont quite be like weriss_cweald bike, but similar. Again, thanks for the idea! I will post up more pics as I am able to work on it
