  • Painted my Kat

    Thanks to 3M Sandpaper, Bondo body filler, and Valspar rattlecan paint. Also to Sharpie paint markers for the yellow tire letters.

    Also replaced my clutch, and installed an ignition advancer (Thanks, CP)
    Need to make a small clutch adjustment, and she's ready for the Hurricane Alley motorcycle race next weekend.

    Looks good!

    Now you need a new sig pic.

    Oh, and get a clear taillight lens or put the grab bar back on. Cuz on the bottom pic, the tail looks like a tube of lipstick...or a dog's ****!

          Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a
          mistake when you make it again.

                  I had actually planned to do that. I was gonna tape off a stripe down the center of the gas tank, to leave that part yellow. When I started sanding it, like a dummy I started sanding the center. Figured it was too late by then. I experimented with the fender over the front tire, though. Left a yellow stripe on it, but thought it looked goofy.
