Maybe I don't understand masking, either! lol There is a final clearcoat going on with the airbrush after the panels get wet sanded down all...
Because I am an advocate for the quality of today's rattle cans, that's what has been used thus far for this project. The biggest issue that...

I'll wheel her out tonight and snap a few pictures in the daylight. All (well, most) of the panels are hing, but the stripes are now complete......
^^^ Nope, definitely not a curing or dry time issue - well, maybe sorta... ...The mid panel that wrinkled up had been drying for over three...
My brother's old 2005 GSX-R 750 would do 99mph in 2nd gear.
@Stosh - thanks for the kind encouragement. I will be using white "VFR750F" decals on the tail, but no bum pad - the 4G seat won't accommodate it....
So here's the progress update for this weekend: Both upper fairings received a final basecoat of white, pearl, then two thin coats of clear. Both...
That battery is not long for this world if it was dry. Your R/R cooked it.
I had a similar experience with a cloudburst in VT several years ago. I had decided that I was going to ride to work that morning, and mounted...
So do the moths.

It could be wheel bearings. My VFR has always had a "swishing" sound that I always attributed to the brake pads just barely being in contact with...
Thanks everyone. I can probably post a few more pics this weekend, but they won't show much in the way of progress. Just fiddly stuff. I did get...
My very first ride last year, I dropped my 4G. At work. On completely level concrete. At 0 mph. I couldn't believe it. Turns out that my lack of...
Aren't you supposed to apply throttle when you get a tank slapper going? In order to unload the front tire to get it straightened out?
Yep. Most likely fork oil. Replace both fork seals, AND your brake pads.
When I laid my bike down last July, I was NOT wearing my jacket. Never again. Even though my crash was relatively minor (25mph lowside), the...
I had an '82 Seca 400! Small world!
Without fairings, I'm not surprised. Your body is a HUGE wind brake. My 4G (1996) has seen 140+ mph (~230km/h) several times, and was still...
