  • Finally got bike back to before the accident

    Here is what the bike use to look like before the accident



    here are a few of the accident




    After much hard work i have managed to get my bike back in order. here is a list of what all i think i did:

    new left handlebar
    new carbon fiber levers
    new gel grips
    new blue chrome windscreen
    new blue turn signals
    new blue rear lens
    new carbon fiber bar ends
    remade custom license plate bracket
    new meshing
    new frame slider, since i ground the last one off
    new left engine cover which i powder coated black
    personally done custom paint job. metallic blue ford color, including
    wheels, swingarm and forks.
    oh and by the way, i repaired all my plastics myself
    custom filled in grab bar holes for a smooth look
    and i probrably forgot something, but that is what i can remember.

    Ehhh, It's not bad Kidding!

    Nice job, how did you mask off the wheel lips to paint them? A lot of time and patience, or do you have a trick?

                    the muffler is actually carbon fiber zukibud

                    i had to plastic weld two spots that actually broke, they werent but an inch or so. then all the rest is actually bondo. didnt have to use much , just in some places where the scratches were too deep in sand out and keep the curve.

                    noodlemice, i just used the stickyback carbon fiber looking stuff that i got off ebay. alot of finesse and artistry to get cut out to fit. on the dash around the guages, that is actually just one piece.

                    thanks alot for all the compliments and the bike will shine alot more when i get around to polishing more. i colorsanded the bike and it takes a hell of a lot of work to bring it back

                      So much attention to detail. It looks great, better than before. Not that before didn't look great too. You have skills. It is impressive.
