Decided to paint some bits on my CBR that were in need of attention - the engine cover and forks. I think it turned out pretty well!

Cheers - no I kept them on the bike and put some news paper over the disks to protect them from dripping paint Thumbs Up

Thanks Daz. I used Hammerite Smooth Black for the forks, and Halfords Very High Temperature Paint - Aluminium for the engine casings.

I once bought a can of that very high temperature paint and had a minor accident, where it fell down the stairs and splattered everywhere...needless to say it was hard to clean it up... Shocked

I think your front forks would have looked better in the aluminium paint finish. Idea but still, it looks better than the manky before pics. Thumbs Up
