Right well here is the nearly finished project, all I have left to do is the rear seat panels but they can wait for now.







What do you all think, I'm really loving the matt slick look....

I don't actually think the picture do it justice, and just awaiting my Fabbri Double Bubble to arrive which will be nice.. Oh and I need to repaint the mirror stalks.

Plus I'm thinking of painting the forks Gold. Hmmm..

Looks spot on mate, love it. Even more impressive knowing you did it with rattle cans! Top job.

That looks great, looks like satin black paint that's still wet.

Actually that dont look bad at all, nice job
Did you do plenty of clear coat?
Forks powder coated gold would look quite good as well, it wouldnt cost much either.

Nope but when you described how you wanted it, i didnt expect it to look as good, hence my ' actually that dont look bad at all' comment
I do prefer gloss black tbh, but its not my bike and that would have cost a bit more i guess.

Edit, looking at your forks again, they would look good black as well.
