Painting bikes?

[Big Dog]

If it's still too tight, a little more lube and put a bit of weight behind it as you rock back and forth.

Preheating the lube and using an impact screw driver usually gets a result

Then just rinse, lather and repeat ain't it?

I have painted my bike and done a tail conversion. The tail was a lot of work I mucked it up the first time and took my sweet time on it over all doing bits here and there when I could be bothered. The tank was full of dents and was pretty shit - was free though so I don't complain. Its white now, still needs stripes. Bike is now Snowflake pearl (Mazda 6). 1K lacquer spray cans. Came out well for cans - good shine, not much orange peel etc. That's it below....

Or ever will.... We all vinyl wrap them now or just Photoshop them
Any way Boots thanks for reminding me. I was thinking of starting a thread about starting threads.

I also herd that someone fell off the bike!…. and a round-a-bout was involved ?

Shall do. Small list of things to do mechanically - just usual maintenance stuff, be good to have it running in top shape, not that its terrible as it is now.

Had a mate years ago who had a T250. He fell off, (lots of times actually) and then one day decided to paint it. When it was done we all went around for the great unvaling. Was a bit shit but then again it was only spray cans. Anyway, he proudly hops on and takes it for a blat up the road. He should have only been about a minute, just to the corner and back. He did only go to the corner and back, but it took five minutes instead. When he got back the bike was shit again, he'd fallen off on the way to the corner.

...if you were down this way I'd really,really, really have organised time to ride with you...honestly...I can only imagine it being a mindblast experience...we could have even exchanged paint stories...
