this heavy and low hung fender was going to be in the way so I made my own rear sub-frame, light mounts and fender |
the mock up before I cut into the frame |
sanded tank and fenders, brushing and finish was very hard to keep the same grain throughout. |
I learned some great masking tricks when working on this. I wanted to leave it all raw until I walked out of the shop and blinded myself with its reflection. |
Self Etching Primer was key |
sneak peak of the retro paint |
2000 degree paint for the exhaust and engine parts, this is just the primer here |
I didn't like the 3 foot long megaphone mufflers so I made my own that matched the style of the bike, the two new ones weigh one third of the originals |
by the time my checklist was this small I had one week until the Cedar City Utah July Jamboree Car show, I couldn't wait! |
