I havent been on the forum as contributing person in a while. I like the forum just fine, I just havent had anything share worthy until now. I decided last year I wanted to wrap my bike in a custom white digital camo pattern. The plastics were red and the first test showed the red through so it turned pink. Now we have decided to take her to the white side and I guess I went a little over board. White frame, subframe, swingarm, wheels, mounts, fairing stay all white on white.

I have started the reassembly now. I have tons and tons of notes, pictures, and labeled bolts. I have to get fork seals, some bearings, new tires, chain and then its moving faster

J&J Powder Coating in Zion IL did all my work Steve. I dont have any new updates as of today. Hoping that some of the small stuff comes in by Friday so i can get the forks together and the front end all ready to rock.
 
white on white on white. I should make some much more respectable progress this week. The fork seals and all the required bearings are shipping now. Once tires get in I can get it in a roller

Niiice...been contemplating on doing my chrome rims spokes in white or the complete rims. It's hard to walk away from the chrome.
 
Well the fork seals didnt show up today so Im at a stopping point. Once tires arrive I can put it into a roller. Will need to buy a chain and then small things for progress. I suppose if I get motivated I can finish running the front electronics but even that will be slowed by the upper chrome tree coming in.

I did make a whoopsie today. I was tightening the swingarm nut and versus tape the frame up like I had done on all the others I just did and and what do you know.......the socket slipped and a scratch down the lower part of the frame. UGH!! You might not notice if I dont point it out as to how minor it is but it was major to me. A little touch up paint and she might be good as new.
