now i no some off you may cringe at doin stuff on a budget, but where needed ive bought the correct stuff and spent the money where safety is involved will try and get sum pics up 2nite.
basically the bike was given to me running on three cylinders and general bad condition i cant ride yet so started stripping it down and cleaning it hope u all like what i done and any pointers would be great.
what did you spart thr frame and swinger with? you will have to be really carefull as it will scaratch real easy.
Ha ha ha, oh my God! I almost didn't do it, I almost didn't do it! I thought, is this in bad taste? But you know what, I went for it. I went for it and I'm so glad I did! Ooooh, worth it, totally worth it.
i would have got it powder coated as it more durable
1991 Yamaha XJ900 its NOT a diversion!! 1989 Kawasaki KR1-S Project ***Hankering after another "Screamer"*** www.kr-1s.co.uk The NEW place for the Kawasaki KR1 series and KR250
yeah i woulda have but didnt have the money to powder coat lucky i had 5 cans of high silver alloy whell paint plus loadsa coats of lacquer and it was done.
well im puttingt in the engine tonite and the wiring loom so hopefully wont be long now! yay
paint will come off and look odd. powdercoating is the only way to go. to keep that cost down ask around local powder coaters to see if anyone needs any extra xmas money to do it for you. id not paint the swing arm myself.

i sprayed the frame for fun really i like polished stuff to but i wanna ride this bike as much as poss so havin a sparkly showroom bike isnt an option but thanks for the comment on swingarm done it myself with a few cans of wheel spray lol
