Ed's Suzuki TL1000R stage 2 (Paint)

Finally in the base color. I have to admit a big V-twin super bike looks good red. And it's Damn RED

 

always loved that bike, only bad thing is the rear shock needs to be replaced.. i knew someone that had the yosh pipes on it boom it sounded great...

 

Paint looks great!

 

Great job, the paint looks nice. Any interest in another possible job, or is this one more of a favor?

PM me if you have any interest

 

I'm looking forward to how it sounds. I punched out the rear third of the pipe and cant refill the tank till its done and in clear coat because of fuel pump location.

 

i love all your hammers on the wall we know how you fix thing now :biggrin:

 

TRUE! All those hammers were used on this tank

 

still think you should sell him MY custom exhaust for it

 

That might be a good idea. We gotta get together and build a few prototypes and figure what to charge for them. Stop by my shop later in the week and we'll see what we can do.

 

paint came out real nice
what was color code for that red??? and where did you get the paint?

Got it at an auto supplier in Stuthers Ohio called MGV

 

upper cowl in first coat

 

First Mock up

1st mock up so i can plan graphics...

 

OK, Started the white graphics and black fades. I'm nearly out of supplies and have yet to go get the clear/hard coat top paint.Waiting on cash to finish up. And to top it off may camera batteries are toast so pics are blurry. Hope its good 'nuff to show where its at.

 

coming together nicely!

 

placed some more stripes. will be adding some pinstripe today. Kinda just killing time waiting on another few bucks from the owner to cover clear coat & hardner to finish this beast!

 

Well done The bike look good.......................

 

The bar ends were scuffed up good, had some fake carbon fiber look on them, chucked them in the lathe and turned out the scuffs and polished them up a bit. Most paint & strips are done. will scuff them up a bit and get ready to clear everthing tiss week sometime when I'm free.

 

Well... i did'nt get any cash dropped off for the clear coat so I kept busy. Cleaned it up a bit, recovered the front seat & paited the rear caliper. Thats about it till i clear it and start assembly. Gotta finish up thse tail wiring and seal it all up, when the clear cures I can get fuel in the tank so I can tune the Power Commander. If I get the cash this week I can stop after work and get the supplies and have a shot at assembly on the weekend.
This wraps up "Stage 2"

 

Pay day tomorrow.... we'll see if she get ]clear caoted this weekend.
