Debating the base color.

I'm thinking the covers, tank and headlight bucket puplish black mica same as the 2000 zx 9r and then I'm looking for a young extremely talented painter that wants to airbrush something really creative and unique.
B)

Any opinions?:woohoo:



This pic helped me see a shim that slipped while I was installing new Z2 cams :ohmy:

Looking GREAT! If your looking for an air brush idea I always thought the Meatlaof "Bat Out Of Hell" album cover looked kinda neat. Keep up the nice work, Doug.

I agree Wireman it seems the surfaces are pretty small for any real great detailed graphics. I like your pic and your work you show great style when it comes to your bikes.

Perhaps I'll consider geometric shapes or some fancy striping?!??! :side: :silly: :unsure:
