I finally have the paint done on this thing. After much deliberation, I decided that as cool as it would have been to do a proper job by getting a compressor and good paint, I decided to spend the money on a steering damper and some rearsets instead. Kind of a no brainer since it's a track bike and not a show queen. Time of course will tell whether it's durable and continues to look good, but for a rattle-can job I'm pretty damn stoked!

More pics to come when the paint hardens completely and I can buff it out and put the decals on, but for now I couldn't help throwing up one pic! It's going to have white rear number plates, and one black plate on the front which will help balance things out a little so that it doesn't look so blocky. The Moriwaki fins will break up some of the white in the middle too, so it should look pretty nice I reckon.

I'm planning on getting my AFM license May 11... so it will be completely done by then. Stay tuned...
