Re: Lloydie's track vtr (miss piggy)
you going to rattle can the tank black, with some white also, it would really set the bike off, it'll be one of the prettiest bikes in the gravel trap....
couldn't resist that one, it really would make it a good looking bike. if you do it, make sure you use petrol resistant lacquer....
I really admire your spannering skills lloydie, keep it up mate....

Re: Lloydie's track vtr (miss piggy)
Don't know if I'm going to paint the tank yet tbh ,
I'm thinking about changing the colour of the bike to match the v5 (multi coloured) but that won't be till later this year and to be honest I'd like a decent rear shock in there first and get the lighter wheels fitted .
I just want it useable for this season so I can collect gravel a few times !!
Thank you for you kind words guys [THUMBS UP SIGN]

I wouldn't use that sh1t .agentpineapple wrote:it'll cost about £20 of Halfords finest paint to finish that tank off lloydie, you know you wanna....
I can get much better paint from a proper paint shop for £10 a can but you get much better coverage with it so it works out cheaper .
The main problem is it's still to cold out to be painting :-(

Re: Lloydie's track vtr (miss piggy)
Sweet as feck! You know it looks great in black, but a nice Mori colour scheme would look awesome!
Keep up the sterling work Lubeman
