You painted that yourself? If so, very professional looking job!

Looks great, should be even better when you get decals and finishing touches on!

Startling paintjob, that will suit a track bike very nicely. It's almost been cut in half, green and black. Mr. Green Thumbs Up

It's got the 'mouth' of a 6r. I didn't look at all the pics before.

For one moment there I was dreading that it would be a 400. Thanks heavens its not.

Looks smashing, don't know whether the wheels would look better with a different colour, but the black seems to match the bike fine.

Did you spray it yourself?

Hi as said before yes i did spray it myself.

I am going to be using the number 66 so that will be on the tail piece and the front, and there will be a few sponser stickers in the black sections but i dont wana go over kill and ruin it.

It was alot of hard work and alot of preperation, many hours of rubbing! I just used a base and clear coat. Obviuosly you will need a compressor and spray gun and some where warm and dry to do the spraying. but if you have never done any spraying before it will difficult to get a really nice finish, but practise makes perfect!
