thanks for ya help Gents,hopefully she's gunna be a complete head turner by Bike Week time.
awesome to see davo! the bikes going to be unreal! i still find your uses of duct tape amusing tho :P
damo, like gix said, the color of the bike how it is reacts so well with light, i just took the photo, no touching up in it at all. nice job. i still have the sound of your exhaust howling in my head
ive also been bloody inspired big time to get cracking on widowmaker again.. only thing is.. i dont have her atm oh well, still can sort, paint, rearsets, turbo stuff.. polishing stuff.. meh, plenty to do! doing the fools run was prolly the best thing i could have done in reguard to building my bike!
cheers.joe.
ps. gix you'll have to PM me your address, so i can drop you off a CD with all my pics and vids, its 154mb, i cant email shit that big, and im sure you dont was 50odd emails cluttering up your inbox, or if ya like, i can email my addy and you can come get it.
Thats amazing about the paint in photos i didnt know.
Bikes looking trick davo how come its taken so long to get started?
Mofo i spoke to my buddy about the paint $400 will cover it, based up in satin black
your call bro let me know if your interested no pressure.
NO IDEA ON A DB COUNT ON THE BLADE BOYS?
i'll sit on the fence with the paint damo.. since i do own a 20x10 shed, and a 3hp compressor, all the painting gear.. im thinking i'll give it a crack. but then again, i dont want an inferior job.. hmmmm decisions decisions!
as for your exhaust... most good exhaust shops have db testers.. they charge ya a small fee to test it, unoficcially of course
cheers.joe.
Joe, email me your address as you'll never find this place mate, or better still, drop it round to Robby's place and I'll pick it up when I get my mail.
Damo,I've got a db meter, drop by any time & we'll check it.quote:NO IDEA ON A DB COUNT ON THE BLADE BOYS?
Damo I got you at 114db 90 degrees to your side on my phone about 20 feet away. I reckon it is louder than that. Very offensive and that's coming from me.
sounds like i have a great chance of blowing 120dbs ah
paint it yourself mofo, if u fuk it up just do it again?!?!?
Rev the fucker!!!!!
fimp.. ive done a couple bikes before... and after several attempts at both, i still wasnt happy with my own work. im just better off with a welder, and a few tools. engineering.. yes.. painting.. not so sure LOL. all it takes is 2 stuffed up jobs and your already equalling the cost of what a professional to do it. especially since im going a hi-gloss black on the bike.. so its gotta be spot on
still it would be nice to say i did all of the work on the bike.
cheers.joe.
Yeah but its only going to be a base for your airbrushing
so the guy putting on the clear should do a top job hopfully
and make the job, you cant fuck up the base just take your time
leave about 15mins in between coats and if you miss a bit in the
coat your doing get it in the next one and only put enough on so its
all covered dont just keep piling it on and if it looks dry in some spots
the clear will fix it.
the clear is the same process (trick of the trade dont put any reducer in the clear
it gives a heaps deeper finish)just clear and hardener if you need any advice dont hesitate
to ask mate
hey thanks for the info damo, and the offer of help. much appreciated. looks like i'll be doing some painting real soon
thanks again
cheers.joe.
Hey, hang on. I just remembered something. Which of you lot threw up in the bogs on Sunday morning? I walked in just before I left for a dump and someone had filled the bastard with puke and done a shit job of cleanin' it up. I'm looking at you Turbokat, Foxy and Iceman. Hands up......
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA, The curse of the Streetfighter ride outs
