Bought a Bandit 400 a couple of months back, wanted one to show the GF how to ride. This was the condition that I brought her home in.

The red and white wasn't working for us, so after a couple of days, she looked like this.

Sent the frame, swinger, and a bunch of other parts for powder coating. Gloss black.

Here's me getting everything else painted, and ready for reassembly. Light orange is safety orange, and the darker more red orange is Chevy orange.

Starting to get it together.

Made up some frame sliders, bought the material, and had a local machine shop whip out a couple, to my specs.

More to follow.. Tank is going to match the fender, orange, with a black stripe. Motor is going to be the dark graphite gray, the same color as the motor on my B12. Everything is being done over on the bike, with very close attention to detail. A Yoshi carbon RS-3 can, as soon as I can get a header for it.
