    Merry Xmas to me....

    Been working on the project bike since May. After 6 weeks at the painters, I got to pick them up today. What do you think?

    That's a beautiful paint job! Be sure to post pics once you have the bike all back together.

    Merry Christmas to you!

        Looks good! If the paint quality really looks that good in person could you tell us how much and who did the work/contact info?
        I'm sure many here may be interested.
        And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
        Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

            Agreed! Great color. I'm picking up my tank and panels tomorrow, I hope they turn out half as nice as yours!

                A work of art :-) does it look the way you imagined? it looks like a hot-rod! Must be a candidate for bike of the month.

                  Yeah, it's gorgeous. It's a Kandy pearl fade to black on each piece. I'm very happy the way it came out. First time I've done anything like this. This guy (John) works out of his backyard. Took him 6 weeks, but he moonlights for the local Harley Shop. He doesn't advertise - and he ain't cheap. PM me if you want a ball park $$.

                    Hahaha...kinda like a Chevelle eh? The stripes were better than I hoped for. They came out great. Thanks for the kind words.:-D

                      Wow! That looks great! The colors look very nice together and the clear looks like it is elbow deep. Very nice!

                          Thanks. It's hard picking a color from a paint chip, but it came out great.

                          Yeah, having depth to the paint was very important to me. Thanks for the compliment.

                              Actually they reminded me of the Ford GT supercar, a simply beautiful machine. Killboy caught one on the Dragon recently but it was missing the stripes.

                              I love the stripes on your paint. Kind of a more up to date skunk look.
