New Paint on an old bike!

[nicholascott]

Hello everyone! I have finished all of my mechanical work and finally have the bike running like a dream. Now, I'm just working on the cosmetic portion. I painted yesterday and just wanted to show the work done so far. I have a whole lot of new parts on the way. Handlebars will be here saturday. I don't see a lot of the silver color. (sorry about the messy garage)

A clean garage is a sign of a finished GS. We wouldn't want that!

Good luck and keep the pictures coming!

looks good, is that silver or a primer? I just primed my project 1100e yesterday. one thing i did was fill in where the suzuki emblems would have went on the gas tank. if your not gonna put the emblems back on it would probably look better if you filled them in too

edit: your rear shock doesnt look too healthy. I'll post some pics of what i did to my tank when i get my new exhaust mounted, i dont want any teaser pics leaking out just yet.
