    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Where's the rest of the tank?:-k

Sure hope you never lose anything down that gap between the tank and seat that you might need.:oops:
 
Looks cool.
Is your paint gas-resistant ? What brand?
mine's NOT gas resistant.... Dulpicolor... but it looks nice..
2 part urethane in a spray can is next step...

Tanks on here look really good, how did you do the lettering on the tank?
 
Interesting seat/handlebar combination. Paint looks good but don't get any gas on it!

Will be doing mine soon as well. Will also finish it off with the Spraymax 2k urethane clear. Done right, they can really look nice for a rattle can.
 
the seat is just there for the rest of this summer!! im gonna break the bike down over the winter and redo everthing. goin with a single seat and a new full rear fender and a little pad for a passenger seat. i hate that seat on there! but it works for now. and as for the lettering there was a sticker there and i painted over it a couple times then peeled the letters off then added one more coat over the letters. as for the paint its engine block paint and a flack clear. its holding pretty good so far. i did spill alittle bit of gas on it the other and nothing happened.
