Hi all,

New to the forum, i've been involved with bikes all my life, raced motocross, and have a varied collection! I own a few bikes, Kawasaki Z1, Triumph Daytona, KX125 motocross, RD400, LC350. Im big into all things 2 wheels! Very Happy

I now paint bikes for a living so i cant get away from them!

Anyway, i'll go for a look around!

Cheers,
Si

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

How about some pictures of your bikes? Be interested to see how you have changed the look on them.

Clean as a whistle (i think?!)

Im usually to busy painting other peoples stuff to do my own, i recently painted my Z as i went to the 40th anniversary rally in Edersee, Germany. Which was brilliant and a lot of jaeger was consumed!! This was done in candy blue, with metalflake silver base, and based on the original Z1A stripes.

Paddy check PM's

Moppy, its a bike i did for a customer a couple of months back, he's still in the stage of building it, and im sure those pipes will have a nice blue tint to the headers when he's having some fun on the strip! I delivered the paintset personally because i wanted to look at the bike in the flesh Twisted Evil

To be fair, from the prices he quoted me it seems viable. If he sorts some nice forum discount for powder coating Wink

Meh - Spam or not, i keep toying with the idea of painting the B1h.

Want the all the plastics doing in a gunmetal gray(ish) colour, much much for mates rates?
