misato can you be a bit more in detail as to what it took to get your header off?

I want to get mine jet hotted this winter and with the weather less than 32 today i think its about time to get it done.

a small wobble-socket 1/4 inch drive will fit on the upper rear header bolt. remove the seat and fan to take off the O2 sensor. I couldn't get the header off without taking the cross bar bolts off. (the bar that goes in front of the motor and back to front on the other side-it holds the oil cooler) With those bolts out I could push the cross bars out of the way and remove the header.

Just back from the painter.. Terrible florescent lights make for bad pictures but it is undeniably roulette green now.. Should I powder coat the wheels next?
Green!

Thanks. Cyber Green was the alternative if they couldn't get the roulette green. Here is a shot with a little bit better lighting. Now I see all the other things I will need to do over the winter..
Green!

Don...You turned the Tupperware Look into a Classic. Like it the way it is. Coating the wheels may be overkill. You have a achieved a nice balance of color. Then again, I tend to have conservative tastes.

Byker, are you going to put the black plastic inserts around the lights? I think that would look sweet with them back on. Either way still sweet looking!

Xb9rski: I never liked that dull black look so we painted all surfaces with the green. American Sport Bike has Carbon Fiber inserts I may consider at some point but right now, I like the look with 1 color on the fairing . THANKS!

A friend recommended a local paint/body shop. The specific paint color was hard to find so it pushed the cost up some but was only $350 before tax. Easy to find paint would have been only $300. I removed all the decals and logos before I brought the parts in.
