Shodog, I don't wether to compliment you or call you a jerk. :lol: :lol: Well I'll go with saying nice job I LOVE the forks. Those came out really nice. Just now I want to finish my bike and I already have a dozen other projects to finish. Very cool bike, I love Katanas, there comfortable without sacrificing performance.

I think you need some more practice though. You should come up to Portland and finish my bike. Then you should be doing ok. :mrgreen:

Tamiya clear orange to the rescue, lol. I love that acrylic paint! I love all Tamiya paints in fact. What clear did you use over the orange?

Another paint question. I am going to be cutting the rear end off of my Suzuki this fall and welding on a Ducati Monster rear end. With that comes some new body work and such.

I need to strip and prep my tank and fairings. What was your method for this? What base paint did you use? What clear. What gun, etc....

Oh, the end result is beautiful and I will say that, lol.
35 years of RC and still broke!
