OK everyone...

I have painted my side covers black and they look awesome!!!!!   :cooldude: :cooldude:  I like it much better than the matte charcoal colour it was.

All I used was the Rustoleum Universal gloss black spray can.  It is good for plastic and is UV reated.  I just took off the emblem and sanded with 1500 grit.  Cleaned it and sprayed.  It did take a few days to completely harden.  Probably because it is only 17C in my garage.

I will post pictures when I get my other stuff back from the powder coaters.  It is supposed to be ready tomorrow, if not then I will have to wait until the new year because they are closed next week.  :(



If global warming is happening...why is it so cold up here?

What's the make and model of the seat you have with the driver's backrest?

It would better if you painted the rest of the bike matte charcoal  to match the side covers , that makes more sense



If I like to go fast , does that make me a racist ???

It's a Russell Daylong seat with an Utopia backrest.

Powder coaters did not get my stuff done yet.  They have had the stuff for 3 weeks now.  This is a new place I decided to try.  The other guy was more expensive, but had a one week turn around.  Good thing I can't ride right now.  :tickedoff:

Just a guy who likes to ride and rock...
