Finished paint job

[howl]

This is the one Mr Honda did for the NR750 at Suzuka.

Here are a couple of photos of my NC30 painted by my mate Andy (http://www.andyhosegoodairbrush.co.uk/)


As the bike was ,looked ok but all of the panels were damaged

A fair bit of rubbing down was needed as most of the 2nd hand panels had been painted over before

All the body work on with the white base coat ready to mark the lines

The painting took about 2 months of evenigs and weekends on and off .
Spec
Ethos 1/2 system ( LOUD ) jetted to suit with the 2.5mm hole slide mod & the extra 0.5mm washer under the std needles , std engine & air box, adjustable rear suspension likage, 520 race chain on Renthal sprockets , carbon chain & exhaust heat guards, HRC rear brake reservoir & rad overflow bottle. rear brake pipe routed through the swing arm , wheels powder coated,
All the panels are Honda most of which were 2nd hand off ebay as the origional ones were damaged with missing lugs . The colours are taken from the Honda codes and have a very high gloss polished finish to the laquer. The logos are from Image Works which are laquerd over .
I know this has been done before but I like ,it and it nearly matches the age of the bike. :D

Thanks for the positive posts chaps .I've added a few more photos if youre intrested.
My tip of the day is . It will cost a lot more than you think ,as you will keep on doing bits when the body work is removed.
Another tip is to not add up all costs up at the end :D

Your a few hours late with this post! I did just that this morning. I added up what it cost to get the bike, what I've spent so far, and what I still need to spend, and I said


But when it's all said and done I'll be


Here's another pic of that NR, it's in the Honda museum.............

Hi Mr Hooligan .I had a few pics of that NC up on the wall as we had to work out where all the lines and logos went .Each one of Hondas was slightly diffrent so that helped I hope you'll post some pics when your done.
