Ok guys, just for you
So.... I painted and rebuilt the handlebars
Here are the front forks, painted and used some steering rack gators to cover up the graft.
So then I finished sanding the engine
I then decided that I wanted to go for a brushed look
Then a layer of clear to stop it rusting.
I was thinking about colour scheme for the bike and decided to go black with yellow scallops at the front.
I hit the front with some ford signal yellow (yummy)
Masked up the scallops.
Then the satin black
I like it!
So... I was then in the mood to add more yellow. I had a fish though my old stickers from my RC cars and came across a spare set of DeWalt masks from an old nascar shell I made.
I know it has nothing to do with DeWalt but hell I wanted it!
I add the mask to the engine and then masked the rest off.
Paint.. more signal yellow
More clear
I likey!
I then put the engine and forks on.
Then the carb and an ram trumped made from a cup.
More yellow and black
More dewalt I love it!
Some overview shots showing the rear wheels and polished exhaust with another hint of yellow.
My little girl liking what I had done!
I now need to connect up the clutch and kill switch other linkages and sort a fuel tank.
Hope you like
Lewis
