paint

Hello all. I want to have my bear claw powder coated to match my oil reservoir. (guy told me it would be easier to match than the phantom black). Additionally I want to paint my radiator shroud. I read on another post to rub its surface with a Brillo pad and then put a primer on(?). The problem...

ok guys, I know we all got pictures of our bikes in our albums, and I've looked through most of them at one time or another, but I'm wanting a custom paint job on mine, in keeping with my theme... so thought I'd start a thread for just the custom paint jobs. A place where we could post one or...

I went cleaning the bike the other day, and I noticed the gas tank and rear mudguard of my R III had been signed, probably be the gent that pin striped the gold. Looks like his name is C.A. Smith. It is under the clear coat, so it has to be original to the time of painting. I think that is...

Well, college football season is almost here. One of my favorite times of the year. I think my R3T would look good in maize and blue:-) Go Blue!!!

well, the R3's been in the paint shop for over a week now...new paint and belly pan install..., called in yesterday to check on progress and it's not yet started. Should have it back in a couple of weeks or sooner..looking forward to the new look.

Any one try the old sand off the chrome and apply hi temp paint to the exhaust?

Other than that beautiful blue Rocket out of Texas with flames and that gnarly chamelion Warp ride, I don't see a lot of custom work in paint jobs. Oh yeah, and NM Rocket has the ghosted gold flames on Candy Red ( Very Nice) in these contiguous United States. I have and still do consider...

Hi all, My early 2004 R111 has grey engine block. I'd like it painted up black, I think it sets the chrome off better. Any body had this done? I'm in Birmingham, England. Any idea who might do the paint job or how much? I don't want a mess job done. Any R111 owners meets coming up soon in...

I have never been one to ride a "carbon copy" as far as my bike goes. It needs to be a little distinctive. I'm looking for ideas to make the Lil Scooter stand out a bit. I don't want a full paint job...as a matter of fact, I would like to get some airbrushing or something done that wouldnt...

2006, R3 w/ tribal stripes mulberry red, where can I get touch up paint,,, rock chips ect,:( TIA where can I find the paint code ??

Local dealer is telling me that a new cam chain tensioner and labor to install is right at $300 bucks to fix the paint can rattle issue. Does that sound right to ANYONE out there in the ethos?

Has anyone ever had their rad screen painted with the Union Jack flag?? I think it would look real kool :D if so .. any pics. ??

Got to get my fuel tank repainted after crash repairs. I am pretty sure we didn't get a graphite paint , black motor option in Australia. Did the U.S get this option and if so anyone got any pictures ? Thanks.

Where can I get touch up paint or a paint stick for a 2006 R3 Mulberry Red. ( I have a few spots I would like to touch up) TIA :)

Anyone know the paint codes for touring bikes in two tone black and new england white??? Trying to paint a fairing and tour pak.. Might just end up going black on both if I can't find the right white.

If you even dream of beating me you'd better wake up and apologise

Starboard side of my bike. Can is an Akropovic from a GSXR1000. Rear-sets are Gilles from an SV650. Rear master cyclinder is from an early Fireblade. Ohlins originally destined for a Hardly Ableson of all things

Port side of my bike. Rear-sets are Gilles from an SV650. Home made gear linkage. Corbin seat. Ohlins originally destined for a Hardly Ableson of all things. Gold plated oil tank embellisher

One off - gets toasty hot in traffic. Without rearsets you can either forget this mod or amputate your leg!
