Where did you get the rear cowl? I've seen them on American Sport Bike.com but, was wondering if there were any other distributors.

Nice looking finish.

Cool wall clock too, I got one on the US ebay then spent months trying to find a new transformer for it. (Scotland)

Looks awesome! Can't wait to see the bike whole again. I was gonna say finished product, but I don't think Misato will ever let it be completely finished!

ahaha, thanks.
yeah, just wet sanded/buffed/polished it. looks even better(battery charging in camera now). I'lltry and finish the frame tommorow. I can't wait to see it in the SUN. I haven't sprayed anything in about 6yrs. felt GOOD!

yeah I saw it in the can and thought it couldn't be the right color...

I'm not sure about the lettering yet.. I'll have to look into the alum tank cover that trojan is working on.

gotta go to bed, I'm OUT

Excellent hhoice of color ! Who supplied the paint? My painter couldn't get it in Sherwin Williams and had to use ICI which made it a $120 qt of paint.

Did you polish the side cover? How long did that take?

Also, what is that pipe on your bike. Looks nasty!

You know I was thinking green earlier when I read this, I love KAWIE green, before they had it, I had it on my ten speed racing bicycle, I think we called it some kind of Royal -something-Green. I think it''ll look great. Are you putting the Buell badges back on?

its dupont. I got the formula from a speed tripple forum and had the local autobody store mix it up.

yeah, its polished. lots of time and work.(frame is next.) I gotta put my polished swing arm on also.

I think I'll just put the 'buell' back on the airbox.

Misato Tim, time to head to Rich's for a custom seat, don't you think? He'll match it up to the rear bob you have there and get you a little more support for your rear and lower back.

Looks great so far!
