New Paint ....

[Felloverboard]

Attachment 21482 That bike looks familiar. I painted mine 1 year ago and love it. It sure get's a lot of attention.

It is a great color combination, I like the extra definition I put on the Ribbed motor covers to go with it.

Painting close to done... Needs buffing & minor items. Anyone who might be a FULLTIME painter or owns a body shop I would appreciate some advice on for a few things. A couple of items I am curious about from a professional. PM me if ok. Steve.... Will send completed pics when ready. And the Honda techs are completely unreasonable concerning their faulty BLACK paint which is soft and scratches easy with no clearcoat on it. 4 coats of clearcoat here to protect the paint.

Do you have any pics of the bike totally complete, after your painter did the extra work, and all parts put back on?

Other pics so far

About 12 hours to teardown, about the same to put back together.... many parts and pieces were bagged and marked that I did. $1080 at this point to the paint shop, but have a few orange peel issues to be resolved as yet. Painter says all in the clearcoat and is normal, waiting for his callback to get it finished so I can complete. Probably would choose a different painter if doing again. Hopefully he is 100% correct and I will be happy in the end.

If it,s in the clear coat all you need is some wet sand and buff it with a good buffer and your done.

Thanks. I meant pics where ALL parts, covers, passenger grab rails, (rack looks to be missing also) etc were actually on the bike.
