Do you keep your eyes on the road??? And, how many crashes have you had?? Really, that's a beautiful paint job. Come do mine.

http://mythillogical.com/index.html - the airbrush was by Jamie at Mythillogical. They charged $300.00 for it.
The tach is only taken apart and the dial I painted myself. I taped the body back together with electrical tape. It wasn't working so I took it apart and oiled it and cleaned it.

Btw
I just traveled thru Ca on HWY101 from Oregon to LA. Ca was beautiful but those storms in Or were something else. I was amazed at how many bikes braved them to head North. I thought the winds ,along the coast ,were going to blow me off the road a few times.It's just me at the edge..........waving

We all over here in the great NW have been kinda cussing this wind and rain as well. It should be mid 70's to low 80's by now. Sure screws up the riding weather.1980 XS1100LG Midnight

I was in Wa too
Newbie -We came thru Wa as well in on 90 & out on 5 to Portland. The rain was just starting in Seattle,so we decided to skip the San Juan Islands & head south.We didn't really hit the big winds & heavy rains until the Oregon coast when we reached 101 after leaving Portland.I'm still amazed how many bikes braved those High winds & heavy rain! I can understand your frustration,it's motorcycle season- time to ride! We've been lucky here in Ohio .Its been sunny & warm enough to ride several times since March. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you guys & hope your weather clears up soon!
Mort- I shared the photos of your bike with some friends & they LOVE the airbrushIt's just me at the edge..........waving

Fred,
On second look, no. I was going by the color (and did not really have a good enough pic) as I have some that appear to be the same.'81 1100 MNS - "Midnight XSpress"
