    That's a CBR600RRRRRR, so will definitely be on a 5.5" rear rim as stock.

    Little more progress today. I have 2 broken stays to EZ out tomorrow. Then should be set with last of the fairings.

    Shit. Duh. The paint scheme made my brain go F3 for some reason.

    Nevermind. Carry on.

    Thanks Terry

    Before heading to my storage units, I stopped at the tag office to leave a gift (a plant) for one of the ladies there who helped me get all my Blue bikes transferring and registered.

    There was a young man at the counter and I saw he had a small motorcycle tag so struck up a convo. Turns out he flips them and has done 100 so far - and is only 20 years old!

    He said the dirt bikes are the easiest because they don't have to meet DOT regs so a title isn't always needed - just a bill of sale.

    Anyhoo......we both left at the same time and I invited him over to my truck to see some of the fairings and cowl I was bringing with me. Both battery covers, both lower fairings, and a perfect headlight cowl. And I mean PERFECT! All in RWB. He was dumbfounded, needless to say. :D

    He is a sport bike guy and we exchanged contact info and I said I'd like for him to come to my storage units some time and check out the stable.

    He was there doing a title and reg. today for a 2019 Yamaha R1.

    100 bikes.....that's crazy!

    I was all...F3 who does this cracker think he is! hahahaha The factory-recommended tire size is 180/55ZR17. Which kinda blows my mind because I remember trying to get bigger than a 130 on Hurricane and getting static. I do love the paint on the CBR...mmmmmm

    I decided to do the 'evening' strike mission - so am fiddling around at the casa for now. These lower fairings had some glitches in the decals - plus the one I did the repairs on needed some touch up so I started on that last night. One thing led to another and now I've done all the BLUE portions on these other ones I have for future use. A little later on when they dry I will tackle the red parts.

    These touch up paints are not an exact match so these will be the old 10' paint job - you can't see any imperfections unless you get within' 10'!

    This one is going on the Cold Devil bike.....

    And these are some I had on hand for repairs and future use......

    Ha ha....so true.

    When I get done I will line them all up and take a photo from 10' away - and then we'll see if they meet the criteria! :)

    In all the bikes I have ever owned......it's the only sticker I have ever applied to ANY of them.

    And I think I'm up to 3 Bibbs now.

    I forgot to take with me tonight a pair of infill panels. One has a dumb sticker on it. Guess now I have the weekend to remove it...ha ha.
