    Fairing Update

    Have started sanding and painting the fairings. Need more Lacquer though, will get some next pay. Paint job on these were crappy as and the decal was drawn on so been sanding away but it is taking forever. Got the front done already though.

    have you put them all together, and dummy fitted them and mounted brackets so they go straight on when painted so you dont fuck the paint doing all that after its painted?

    Looking good but i would make all your mounts and oggy nob holes while you wait for cash for more paint as a fresh home paint will mark up while you experiment with mounts.Get it 100% mounted photo it for us then pull apart and paint it.We need before and after paint photos anyway or your thread is dead.
    I have evolved as a KB member.Now nothing I say should be taken seriously.

    (oggy hole) put bolt in mount hole and put playdough inside fairing.When you loose mount the fairing the bolt will mark the playdough giving you a centre mark to drill your holesaw hole.
