Well finally got the painter into gear and got the spare swinger I was able to source out painted and fitted , re-attached the headlight fairing and lowered the head light about an inch and a half , I had been riding around for a few months without the fairing on it , I still may get rid of the whole set up in the future and find something a touch smaller just really dont want external indicators , I know that the police do but thats there opinion oh and finally got the pillion pegs off [:p]

[The crow]

nice work now youve got something different and something to be very pround of and dont forget to keep smileing every time u approach her

[MONO]

Dave top blade great to watch this one unfold just picked this thread with your latest post .Fantastic to see another bladefighter ,once i would of cringed of taking a sray gun,hacksaw,grinder,mill,drill, .But now" fuck her " i say off with her clothes you've done us proud .I just hope HONDA is watching this is what they should be making for people without your skills and time,and it's funny how 1 man 1 garage can build 1 lightweight fast machine with style,but every time honda puts out a naked bike (since the begining of time)some joker says "hey let's just ad 30kgs and detune it " WANKERS .but back to you you said something about black frame ???

Nah paint is out , Im hoping for a pretty plan all black gloss with a pin stripe , black frame and motor (one day )but in the short term Im going undercoat grey on the tank, front and rear, actually catch, I picked up an 04 rear arse end for it of ebay aswell so thats the focus after the fibre glass goes around the headlight, do you still have your original exhaust that you are willing to part with?

I know you said those famous last words "shes finished"but

Shinny new freshly chromed engine bolts (I stole the idea of Dan@BC)New Sub frame mounts to finally get the tail where I want it , I was after a real agressive stance without to much up kick in the tail just height[}:)]
Took of a few bits and pieces and got them powder coated and this what she looks like

[davio]

um ,, ohh,, err,, HOLY FUCK !!shes a goddess well done mate

[KATO ZX7]

Nice ride Huey

She looks the goods :D

[sen]

That's so bloody hot.. flawless execution :D

[davio]

just cause i was goin to do the black bike thing, and lookin thru the random fighter page they all seemed a bit too solid(my opinion) so do some computer mock ups before u make her all dark,, or tell me to shut the fuck up ,, it seems u have proved u have gr8 taste in fighterin,, just had to say

[HueyonaBlade]

I am in the thought process of changing the whole colour scheme which will invole frame and motor in black , the reason for this , I let the Bro inlaw ride it while I was away over xmas , co-inscidence clutch cable snapped , after getting a new end on the cable (useless c*%t ) not knowing how to back of the adjustment , decided to use pointy nose pliars to pull on the cable then a slip later I have a nice inch long gauge in my tank.[xx(]

P.S. Thanks again guys for noticing my efforts [:I]

[miniman1]

Very nice work mate!! I'd love to see it in the flesh!

I'd smash that idiot that scratched the tank!! Is he payin for the respray???

[HueyonaBlade]

Yeah ,I doubt he will cough up for the respray but he had better contribute thats for sure as the problem we have now is that Gibbo is unable to get the Orange Candy paint as House of colour have stopped making it , hence maybe the new colour scheme

[JackTar]

Very nice mate, well done.

[Gix11]

Sounds like Fergusons bike haulers are onboard mate and doing a run to the AFR from Melbourne. Get onboard so we can see it!

[CBRRRT]

Must be something about brother inlaws, mine is a usless cunt too mate, and fucks up everything he touches. Sorry to hear about the paint mate, but if you put the fairing back on it might hide the scratch a bit.

[CBRRRT]

Matey, in your feature in Streetfighters mag there is a dodgy lookin bloke standing on the pier behind you in his leathers, Hmmmmmmm anyone we might know? You got any ideas Rod?

[Harry]

Huey thats the nicest blade iv laid eye's on mate..congrad's dude

[opindown]

Better then Jons cause your doesnt have fairings. ;)

[Harry]

jon's would look hot to but he like's to have a fairy'ing !

[HueyonaBlade]

Hey, hey, you blokes ,I wont have you talking down Jons bike he's been a big part in pumping up my tyres so get of his back he's just slowly making the transition to streetfighters thats all, its all a bit overwelming at the start

[opindown]

someone just sneak over to his house and pinch his fairings. one he sees it naked he wont worry about the fairing any more!

[CBRRRT]

Oi you lot stop talking about me like I'm not here, I might be old and piss myself on a regular basis, but I......I.......I What was I talking about, ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.......................

Who changed channels? I was fuckin watchin that!!!!!!!

[opindown]

You crack me up Jon. we are just haveing a bit of a talk as to whether or not we should steal your fairings. Thats all you old fart

[Harry]

I also spent a bit of time on my levers cash is low so I have to wait for a good set of rear sets so I thought a bit of creative drilling and then polishing may do the trick ;)

[CBRRRT]

Looks total sex mate, I'm off to the shed in a mo to take a deep breath and remove the fairing. lol. Pics to follow.

[FIGHTERMC]

[HueyonaBlade]

http://www.asfphotos.com/upload/1242186120.jpg


Powder coating is in , its all falling into place ......now wheres that chrome I ordered:D

[CBRRRT]

Is that lot off your Blade Dave, or just a box of random bits you had laying around in your shed. Dont remember any of that on my bike Fella!

[HueyonaBlade]

Ha ha, thats cause your bike hasn't evolved yet into a fully fledged fighter ;)

[CBRRRT]

Are you sure Dave? that head stock looks like the one on my lawn mower, lol.

All good stuff mate, crack on!!!

Did Mrs. Hueyonablade say "You better put something down on my floor coz if you get any oil on my carpet, you're in trouble" lol.

[Tomanyprojex]

All looking good, can't wait to see it coming together. The engine looks really different with the wrinkle finish. Does it look like it might collect loads of shite or do ya reckon it'll be easy to keep clean?

Dont know mate but Im sure hoping that it wont be that difficult as the wrinkles arn't that pro-nounced [:p] So if I can keep it clean as most of the time it wont build up a grime base

[CBRRRT]

Mate, my gran is proper wrinkly and we only use a damp spounge and warm water to keep her clean. Saying that Grandad has got a proper grime base on him, and he stinks of piss.

[CBRRRT]

Any progress over the weekend Dave?

[CBRRRT]

Keep a stiff upper lip mate.........Oh wait a mo, you cant do that can you, coz your not a Pommy. Ahhh bless. ha ha.

I know how you feel matey, when I had my zorst done the guy said £100.00 and a week to do. Took nearly 3 weeks and £200.00 I must admit it left a sour taste matey.

Keep smiling Bud.

[CBRRRT]

Hey Dave, any news yet mate? Must be something happening you can photograph. Have you got your chrome back yet? How's Gibbo getting on with the paint? Did you decide on a colour yet? What mods have you done while it been in bits?

[Gix11]

Fuck that's tidy Dave! One thing I've always felt about your bike is that the back hoop looks smaller than it should do. Is it running a 180 or have you stretched something smaller on there? Actually, now I look again, it's porbably some visual illusion caused by the 16 inch front! Still, VERY tidy! You can just pick out all the knuckledusters in the paint.

[BANDITROD]

That looks bloody great Dave .....that colour looks shit hot

[Fight_fan]

Thats brilliant! Love what u'v done mate!

[Jed]

Love it. Very tidy and the colour is great:D

[fimpBIKES]

was wondering WTF when u put up the pic of the frame

but then seeing it all together it looks tops!

[mr.zxr]

looks real good. i would never have done that paint combo on the frame but it turned out nice. i like it.

[el sammo]

very tidy!! looks light too
