Here's an in process of my latest project. Giving my bike a two tone red and white paint job.









back wheel will be done tomarrow.

Just noticed the brake disc the braking surface isn't red it's just reflecting the wheel.

Pics are on the poor side. I had to use my phone since I couldn't find batteries for my good camera. Keep in mind all the white will be red and all the taped areas will be white.

I think once the red goes on it will give whole new look...any blue going to be tossed in for the "patriot" scheme?

im just not a fan of those bikes AT ALL. I think its the saddle bags...but to each his own right? and yeah that blue outline would have looked nice. tedious, but nice.

You'd be amazed at what those bags will hold. I can put a 24 pack of brews in each saddle bag.

I'm not a huge fan of all the checkers on the tank, but over-all, nicely done.

thats a real eye popper...nice red accents on the engine as well. The red checker theme reminds me of and old fire dept harley or highway patrol. Some blue accent would look cool but I agree that I wouldnt be sure where.

nice finished job tho, very retro flavor.
