race rep paint jobs

Post by mactat2 »

Hi all,
Has anyone ever seen a firestorm done in Konica Minolta colours? I've seen a few repsol and Castrol reps but not much else. As i'm respraying the bike white I thought a bit of blue like the Konica bike might break it up a bit.

It would look great, especially if wheels done also. Do it.

Cheers guys :) Sorry red thunder when it's finished I wont have time to spray another i'll be to busy riding mine, that and the missus has a list of diy jobs for me :lol: its driving me nuts hearing bikes going past when mines in bits! Burty I used rattle cans to do the white on the tail, but it works out cheaper to buy paint by the litre and use a spray gun which is what i'm doing now for the larger panels. With a bit of luck I should get the main fairing done today
