        Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

        When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

          She's a beaut! Great idea/job with the seat pan and seat. You have me thinking now.... BTW, did you paint it yourself? If so, what paint and what kind of spray set-up?

            Thank you! It isn't quite as perfect as I wanted but it's turning into riding season even here in the Great White North.

            Here is one more pic for good measure (I know the air filters aren't on )

              Yep I painted it myself (the first time ever touching a spray gun). I used acrylic enamel for both clear and base. The black is Limco 3 and the clear was Xtreme KlearKote.
