I love that color choice with the Z1 scheme! Looks like it should have been a factory color

Made a blooper with the front fender.

Had an idea that painting over the stripes with the candy would look cool...but it didnt :pinch:
Did this blooper before painting the gastank. So now I have to do it all over again :woohoo:

Thanks 650mod,

I´m just a simple farmboy and a cockeyed optimist trying to make it in this world. :laugh:
