Those forks do look very nice. I am also doing a make over on my bike currently. I would love to do something like that to my forks. Can you explain the type of paint and stuff more?? It looks great!

[shodog]

The paint I used was a model paint made by Tamiya. It's called clear orange. Depending on how shiny your under surface it will show through the paint. I've used it on a number things before and it seems durable but I'll just have to see how it holds uup in this application. I can always remove it pretty easily with some jasco paint remover.

This project is great. Those are the exact color fairings I had in mine. In fact, I very well might be cloning your project

I especially like the forks. I never considered that but I think I will be doing something like that too.

Ive been trying to find a paint to match my anodized fork uppers and dude, you just hit this one out of the park

Wow, I am so jealous right now. You got some major talent man, I wish I had the time and space to do what your doing.

Great job keeping all of us posted. I'm interested to see how it all comes out at the end.

where did you get the plastics

[Free Coffee]

Ebay plastics.

And if you read the entire post- he says they're from Ebay on page one....I think.

More progress to report

The fender that came with the plastics kit isn’t for my bike. It’s a completely different shape and hole drilling. So I sanded and painted my original fender. I went with a color called Metallic Black. It looks like a dark metal flake grey. It really compliments the other parts and makes the fork color pop. It has a taken some time to do these as wet sanded between coats to keep the paint job butter smooth.





In addition to the fender, I did the rear grab bar the same color.



All I need to do now is finish off the tank. It’s got some primer on it and I am just block sanding it to get the base really smooth.
