Hi,

Thought i'd start a thread on my nc29 project.

The story so far is bought this bike to be a race bike for this year but new business is straining my cash at the moment (bodyshop) so i will be selling the bike when i've finished rebuilding it. It cost my £450 engine not in needing a top end rebuild and the rest seemed ok just a few panels missing. The bike was stripped into pieces and end of last week the frame swingarm and fork legs have been painted in satin black. The bike is back on it's wheels and i'm just waiting to get a few more part's for the head so i can get the engine back in. I will add some pics of the frame later as i will do a bit more to the bike today if my other project my mk1 golf gti does'nt catch my eye first on the way in the garage lol.

and as the bike stood today after some building to get it back on its wheels.







sorry about the poor pictures should of removed my mates nc23 race bike out of the way first!!!

i think it would be better if its powder coated



.

yes mate possibly but if you own a bodysshop why would you pay out when you can do it for next to nothing ?

nice finish mate, what paint did you use? and do u think it'll stand upto time like powder coating does? only asking as after ive finshed with doin up the cbr im stripping and rebuilding a mtx 125 on a budget.

hi it wasetch primed (1 pack) and then used satin black (2 pack). it should be ok probably not as tough as powder coat but we will see how it goes.

i like the way this is looking :) keep up the good work
