    My VFR is 90% done, had some issues with the mechanic. She is looking good now, all my riding buddies love it. I will have the front panels with airbrush art on this week and then the other final touches. Here she is.

    VERY COOL Cafox. Not very often you see that kind of airbrush work done on a VFR. The flames (fire) work done on the lower cowls is amazing, as is the skull.

    I'd recommend that you make sure and get some clear bra strips installed along the leading edge of the panels. I failed to do that on mine and now she has nasty rock chips all over :pout:

    I am getting a clear bra done on Tuesday, been riding with different front panels for a week now so I don't chip the art work. I will also get the edges of the side panels done also. Road rocks will kill anything facing forward:mad-new:

    It looks fantastic. It breaks up the lines and makes the bike look smaller, more compact, to my eye.

    Ok I am now done, except for the wind deflectors and the ASV Levars. I am giving ASV until the end of this month to make some new levers, they have been on back order for a while now. I might go with JR Performance or Pazzo Levars. Now it is time to ride:sneakiness:

    Yes I am a female rider, I will be taking some photos with the bike soon. I had found a little replica VFR on ebay so I got one and was waiting to paint it the same color. This is the actual pink paint from my bike and black nail polish.

    I knew it cafox....thats a great idea doing that. Those ghost flames are sick.... if you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for that paint job? Next time you ever head north towards say Hwy33..or the coast give either.Long, OOTVS or OClandspeeder a shout out and join us for a ride ;).

    Thanks, I paid $1500 for the paint job. I think he is the best airbrush and paint guy we have in my area. I will let you know the next time I come your way. I want to go to Cold Springs Tavern, I love the ride and the food.
