looks fine, i hope that paint hold up.

I think that i paint motor too, but I ask my painter , and he dont recomend
 
It is High Temp epoxy. The guy who did the work has done at least 50 street bikes and some Harley's. He says he never had one come back for touch up. Mine is more shiny than I wanted, but I like it. The painter does a lot of radical Harley's, Choppers and streetbike show bike stuff. It was hard to get him to do just a basic black. He wanted to put all kinds of graphics and crap in it. I was like NOOOOOOOOOO!

Ya, the black tainted engine is a lot of work, but it looks like its moving when its setting still.

I hope he put a clear coat over the top of the epoxy. Your bike is beautiful, one of my favorites. Black and mean, but seriously. Epoxy as it ages is known to chalk, if you do not have a clear coat. I am sure your painter knows this however. I am only speaking from the powder coating side of things. As this is what I do for a living.

Great looking bike, now lose those cheap stick on reflectors on the front forks..lol
