Well, I finally got my bike back together, and after a 1000+ miles over the past 4 days (on a trip to Nashville and back) and a full wash and wax, I am proud to introduce El Diablo 2.0. I have been working with a local powder coater and have had a number of parts done with an "ultra chrome" base and a candy red "Jolly Rancher Red" outer coat. It has that beautiful candy red look that I was looking for that matches the red paint and pinstripe when out in the sun. I realize the look may not be for everyone, but I love the way to looks.    |

Turns out not what or where, but who you ride with really matters  |

That is HOT!!! What parts did you "Ultra Chrome" paint? Oh, I see you used it as a base. I misread it at first. I like it. Nice job. |

Even better than before Do they powdercoat a candy red right over the chrome pieces ? I think the gas tank filler and chrome stacks would look real good also. |

I like it although, I probably would have polished the wheel and coated the rotors. Nice work. |
