New Paint

Here's a fuu fuu photo of my bike with the painted side panels.. I bough two semi scratched panels on eBay (about $60 ea) and Mark and I rattle canned the checkerboard graphics. It now has an increase of 6 HP at the rear wheel. Ricky, Alan, Kevin, Fadi, watch out boys.

Re: New Paint

henry the bike looks AWESOME!!!! Superb on the extra 6 HP but I would suggest you spray some more wherever you can and then pass the spray can to Alan as i am sure he will need the extra power for his GS this year
