Forks and swingarm will be getting cleaned up and sprayed black as well. But what I am really looking forward to is getting all the panels done. They are all rubbed down and prepped ready for priming. Just go to get primer, paint and lacquer.

It will be a little Black beauty when done.

its gonna be Red as Red ones go faster

I reckon white, as Carl is living in the 1950's, so black & white are the only options!!

Your not far off the mark there Kev. I'm not living in the 1950's but I am very Black and White. There's no middle ground with me. I'm a yes, no kinda guy and when I do thing's I take it seriously and all the way or nothing.

And no It's not going to be White. I did think about White at one stage, but I want something that is different and unique. The Terminator springs to mind or even alien.
I will tell you the frame and swingarm will be going Black though.

So do I, so that's kinda shot that little money spinner down aint it!

Kevs gonna feel left out now.

Today I got me carbs cleaned and put back on the Fazer today. Sorted out the electrics and finished off a few bits and bobs. It just needs oil, filter, coolant, battery charged and a bit of fuel and it's ready to test.

I also sprayed my pipes and Micron Matte Black with heat resistant spray.

Dirty carbs



Clean carbs



And back on the bike
