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 .
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 :-(

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
