No one ever is. :smt116
The original and now banned "Tomb of the Mutilated" cover is absolutely horrific, as are pretty much the rest of them! It would cost a fortune to have that sprayed on a bike.
She is going to be black. Going along the lines of the JPS Lotus colours. I've already got the gold honda tank stickers
Now that does sound cool, do post up pics as you go.

I did Google it............erm.......... lol. I'm a pacifist, scared the bloody life out of me & gave me nightmares :eek:
I'm going to hopefully get the CBR MOT'd this weekend (if my last few bits arrive), but the paint is going to have to wait until, probably August as I've splashed out a small fortune on the Triumph this month & I'm off to the Isle Of Man next month for my holidays, so cash is tight.
It'll get me aquainted with it &, if there are any problems, they should show their head before the paint is on :)

Quick update. The old girl lives :) Need a front sprocket as this one is knacked, but everything else seems hunky dory. Going to take her for an MOT this weekend, so will see if my work has paid off. I reckon in total, including buying the bike, it has cost me about £700 - £800, so might be cheap bit of transport.

Quick update. She passed her MOT, so am going to get some insurance & tax on her & run around for a while. Couldn't beleive when it passed, I was questioning my own work & shouldn't do.

lol its a poor state of affairs when the MOT tester says "passed" and your response is "are you sure?"

I know, it's pretty bad when you don't have faith in your own work. I do need to stop it. It's that glass half empty attitude, if it did fail, then I wouldn't have been disappointed.

She seems to be running fine mate, think I'll be sticking some water wings on it to go home on tonight lol
