do you have to clear coat it ?
if so a few coats would make it shine and protect the paint well .
my 600 i had looked like it was diped about 10 times in clear .
i recken the the clear on it was 3 mm thick

Um I've done 3 coats of clear spray for protection and shine, do you reckon I should do more??

Hmmm yeah well I have almost an entire can of clear left, maybe I'll do a few more coats, I can probably get away with just doing it on the bike ay cause it's not like clear paint is gonna do too much haha!

That looks awesome! Must say, it was kind of hard to imagine the finished product at 1.30am with the fairings still all over the place and sleepy eyes

Actually the black line on the tail lines up with the black stripe at the front too! What a happy accident.
Can't wait to see the finished bike in person!
