Title: One Month Later...My Tins Are Back and I'm Running
Post by Southpaw on 05/12/11 at 12:15:22

Well, It took two tries and a month of getting around life's little surprises but I finally got my bike back!

Goodbye to "The Great White" (the "before" picture)

The Assistant Mgr where I worked a a 16 Y/O had a Chevy II about that color,, he had hopped it up & painted it,, it was pretty mean..then he did the same thing with an El Camino,, Its a nice color,,

Tank bibs look good, I just wonder if they dont get dirt under them & the vibration make the bib/dirt combo rub the paint to death..

Thanks guys! I'm REALLY liking this paint job, right down to the amount of glare it cuts down on a bright day like today! The tank bib was an OEM closeout special I found on e-bay from a dealer in southwest Missouri for $45. Way cheaper than anything else I could find so I snapped it up.

***edited for corrections...it's a Suzuki part # 9910A0-76000, and I paid $34.95 +12.35 shipping***
