I never really wanted to leave in the first place. If that bloody R100LT I had wasnt a great big bit of poo I would still have had it.Airbear wrote:Good to see you back in the fold and loving your BM, Ross.
The R80 has restored my faith in Airheads.

I am crap at painting. I am crap at prep for painting. I shall not tell you what happened to the red.
I went and bought some Charcoal coloured paint. Didn't notice it was hammer finish till I started to shake the can. Oh well lets see what it looks like.
I liked it. So added some black. Added my logo. Just have to let the paint cure. Then some clear coat and done.
The fairing is from http://www.boxercafe.com/
Looks way better without the back rest.

Are those bar end mirrors mounted in the original mirror mounts? I just got my R80 mono on the road, painted it myself, a lot cheaper than a pro job, but not as good.

My first thought was that the red mixed in with the black on the gas tank was really well done. But maybe....

The fairing looks cute. How does it fair at speed?

She'llbe, great news. We need pictures. A paint job only needs to look good from 10 metres away as you look back and grin.She'llbe wrote:Are those bar end mirrors mounted in the original mirror mounts?

Yes they are. The mirrors are made up of two different sets.She'llbe wrote:Are those bar end mirrors mounted in the original mirror mounts? I just got my R80 mono on the road, painted it myself, a lot cheaper than a pro job, but not as good.
