new paint on the bike
 
So I just figured out how to put up some pics. This is what my bike used to look like. I haven't taken pics of the new paint, but I will when I get home from school today.

i never understood why people spend $ and paint there bikes, as soon as you dump it thats the paint job down the tubes.

The reason I painted it is because I dumped it. I didn't have to spend a dime painting it since I did it for my custom painting project at school :)

The bike looks real nice already (before you dropped it of course)! How bad did you drop it. I'll be back later to check out the new paint job :D.

It wasn't a bad drop. I was goin pretty slow in a parking lot when the front tire hit a little bit of ice and slipped out. There was a couple small cracks, but nothing that was too hard to fix. Anyways, this is what it looks like now. The pics kinda suck since it's cloudy out.

That looks nice. Keep it on all 2 this time;) Unless you intentionally go on one wheel from time to time.

any in progress pics? I wanna see it in person, cause that blue looks too "light" for me, but I think the scheme is growing on me.

Looks better than before! Nice job with it, did you do the painting or did tkrperformance do it? You need to put the decal back on the front though, imo ;)

Not bad for a gixxer. Good to see it was just fairing damage. Looks fresh and clean try to keep that way.

I painted most of it, but Mark (TKR) helped me out with prepping some of it. No decals are goin back on it. I thought about painting GSXR into it somewhere, but I decided not to. The blue is darker in person. The pics don't really do it justice cuz there's a type of metal flake called Prizmatique that doesn't show up in the pics. I took the pics infront of my house before it started raining last night.

WOW, I never would have thought a paint job would make a Honda Rebel look that fucking awesome!! Good work. :D
