Well, it was yellow and blue, with stickers, when I bought her..

I prefer black

Very nice! Great wheelie also.

I dig the blacked out look, nice looking bike.

Don't the young kids call that "murdered out" now.

That's a nice clean looking bike you've put together there.



I think it would look just a little more finished off with an asbestos tape wrap on the head pipe and that muffler rattle canned with high temp grill paint.



Either that or leave the head pipe the way it is and chrome the muffler to match the other little hints of chrome.



The rest of the bike looks so good, that muffler's just putting me off!

Thanks a lot

Yeah, I didn't really know what to do with the muffler.

At the beginning the head pipe was a really nice golden/flamey color,

now it's just a bit burned out.



I need to think about it

Looks great!



Say no to "performance chrome"

I saw you post on the TW Group on FB - I like it, I actually just got mine flat blacked out on Tuesday.. I'll be posting pics soon. Did you remove you engine to paint it or did you leave it in place?

At the start I've painted some parts separately, but when I decided on full black, well, there was no need anymore

Really cool job man, I really like the simplicity and clean look it's got. I think Batman would have this as his daily rider haha. What type of paint did you use for the rims? My two cents would be to give her a name and write it in some cool cursive writing on the swing arm or something. I think it would give it some cool personality. Yeah nice wheelie too

I like your video! It was funny for me as here in the US we ride/drive on the right side of the street. I kept thinking "dude, move over to the other side, you're gonna get hit by a car!" When you were riding on top of those mountain ridges the views were amazing, you live in a very pretty country! Are you able to get to those mountains and that beach all within riding range from your home on your TW?
