Sharpie to the rescue !
Rotor bolts look good.
Stuff has been on there for six months.
I wash the bike every saturday like clockwork
Plus a couple more thats at least 30 times the bike has been scrubbed.

All the bolts still look good !

very nice work, indeed

thought i finished off the remaining bolts, but the more you do the more you see you wanna paint.

so tom. i wanna paint the outer silver ring of the gas cap and maybe take off the brake bolts and ft axle bolts, also saw a bolt holding the rear brake line down that could use painting.......

ended up painting the 4 main fairing bolts, 2 on the ft fender i had missed, the riser spacers and the huge riser bolt heads.

Looks great. I have the blue one also and have thought about doing the same thing. Thanks for sharing

See with my OCD that is exactly why I didn't want to open that can of worms

I will say it looks great though....but I would see it as something that would never end. Nice job :agree:

Need to leave a few in the white for contrast.
Otherwise you lose effect.
Chain adj screws, Rear caliper bolts and brake cable clamp are still white on mine for just a bit of accent.
Your bike is blue so it may look better with all black....???

Both of the bikes are lookin good! Blanca, you have all kinds of tricks up your sleeve. Thanks for sharing them with all of us.
