Still coming along slowly, but surely. Next is some lighting, and some graphics painted on, and some more clear coat.

Here's what she looks like so far



It's supposed to be pearl white, but in the light it looks more silver. It still came out pretty well I think. I'll get some better pictures soon - this one was taken with a phone camera.

Hey Redbeard - thanks, and sorry for the delayed response. I haven't been around much lately. A PM is coming your way.

The bike is almost done, and has already been at a bike show. I'm going to try and get another pic or two of it before it's gone for good.

I haven't seen the final product yet, but its effects lighting in the frame. I probably won't see the bike again until the next show where it will be displayed. If the bike is still around by the time it gets a bit warmer outside I'll likely be the one to ride it in the parades since I'm one of the few involved that is comfortable on a sporty. The next time I see it I'll be sure to snap a few pics.

It's been a long time, but lots of work but the bike is complete and has been being shown. It made the news today!

I really wanted to donate some of my lighting product to you guys. As long as I know it goes toward a good cause I am all for it. Let me know if you still want to add some accent lighting to it, we just unleashed our multi-color kit. I have 6 strips on my ninja 650 and HOLY crap does it change the look of it.
