May's little monster.

[MotoPsycho]

Anybody know how close the tabs for the plastic undertail mounting points are compared to the older style frames ? I got a CAD file that may be of use to you Jon for if you want to build your own undertail pan.

[Jonny Black]

are you talking about this?

[MotoPsycho]

Ya, it would replace that.

I'd be interested...I have a new one cuz it was pretty cheap from Ducati ($20) but I'd like something in alloy to tidy up my Supanova tail light wiring.

I know its been awhile since I have added anything new here, but this has been an interesting year. Financially I keep my head above the water, and when I got a few bucks, i put it into the project. when the A/C took a crap...it was tough, but I still could keep the project going.

however...recent turn of events has really put the brakes on things, I am going to be a dad....found out today actually that I will be having a little girl. oh boy...just turned 40....life has it's little surprises huh?

anywho, I will get back on the monster when I can....I do appreciate everybodies patience and especially all the parts donations, the bike will be completed....in due time of course, I will finish it.

peace

Congrats on becoming a dad!

Just caught up on this thread and have a question.

Why are you putting a 190 rear tire on? My S2R1000 has a 180. Just seems odd for a 620

[Jonny Black]

what she wants.....is what she gets. it fits....it isn't unsafe, she isn't a leaner anyway....so no harm.

[SpikeC]

And it will give her a softer ride!

Congrats!!

[MotoPsycho]

Congrats on the little one. I'm 41 and have a 2 and 3 yr old. My wife says I'm the oldest of 3 children.

[Jonny Black]

thanks guys 

[Jonny Black]

ok...I know its been a little while....but I have made a little bit of progress.



prepped
and



first layer of paint.
gloss black, after a week of curing, I will put on the second layer, which will be the chrome, then another week of curing, and then the finale layer, the anodized purple.

I am just doing the rear wheel for now to see how it turns out. If it goes well, and I am satisfied with the result, I will do the front wheel and frame, and then start to put the bike back together.


I think I can, I think I can...

And this weekend goes on the chrome.





the chrome turned out well I think.

[DucHead]

Lookin' good!   

[Jonny Black]

turned out ok, but I feel I could get this color from powdercoating it....not exactly what I was looking for. I am looking for a deeper anodized look that really pops. ohwell. she says she likes it...so I guess I will press on.
