From the hands of SuperBike Dan... after MUCH deliberation... here's a sneak peak on my Ltd. Ed. DP

Its been a bi*ch to find a colour match for the Ni-Bronze finish that was on the bike for a decent price and I would never have even got near without Firebird Steve & SBD :daumenhoch:

I'm like  :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D - can't wait to build it.

( just a shame I forgot to put the forks into the package I sent to Dan...  Me=twat :uglystupid2: SORRY DAN... THEY'LL BE WITH YOU THURSDAY )

this was a killer of a job, the metal was shot to pieces, after two coats

of chrome silver, first coat just to fill the metal and seven coats of the

lacquer ???  i told Ed we'd get there in the end and we did :)

just cant believe he didnt send the forks :(

That is lovely but i reckon we need some daylight shots of it to really see the colour of the finish.  :4_17_5: :4_17_5:
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

F-COUGH!!!!!  :P

They were wrapped and ready to go but I didn't put them in the box... but my brother in law who sent the parcel, and KNEW what I was sending SAW THEM next to the box and didn't bother telling me... just put them under the desk  :shocked: I'd not seen anything left out as they had been TIDIED AWAY so I thought they went... :idiot2:

I have already apologised in full for scaring Dan by being 'sure' they had been sent and getting him to go and track the box down - I came clean on what had happened and Dan was pretty cool about it ( even though he was thinking  :knuppel2: ) and I don't blame him.

Nothing can p*ss on my fire as... if you scroll up a little... little higher.... higher..... THATS MY BIKE HAHAHAHAHAAA YES!!!!!!!

tbh paul i really am mate, this job was way out of the norm for me, powder coat first then

two pack coloured lacquer,not what i do, if i could have got the top coat in powder then it would have

been so easy but these old skool bikes are and will always be a challenge and i always get

there in the end ;D >:( :( :daumenhoch:
