shes going in for new paint.
yep the old girls number has finally come up, monday she goes in to the paint shop for her new coat of paint. there are still a few things that havent come in on order but the gold pinstriping will now be done in paint instead of the factory decals to allow the bike to be finished. its been a long wait but it was worth it to get this shop to do the work as they are real artists and not just panelbeaters.

should be in for a week, but i am allowing a bit longer as he is really fussy and wont rush it. it will most likely have to go back as the handles havent come in yet, but thats no big problem.

Hey jamie we might have to organize a ride up to your neck of the woods to have a look at the green beastie once she is finished or before you scratch her again .

i finally got to the shop today, not a lot of progress though. shes all pulled apart and rubbed down. should be primered by the end of the week, it also sounds like the new parts are finally on the way, as we had to wait for the order to come from america.

yeah but without all the yelling and cursing aj,........ still havent got her back yet, they are having a few issues getting the paint matched. im really getting withdrawal symptoms now i would even ride a scooter if one was left in the driveway. we have an opening of a bike accessory store tommorow morning (our first one in town) so io might go and look at some goodies for the old girl for when she gets home. im already ordering a new crash bar for her as the old one will look shabby with the new paint. im sure it will all be worth the wait, i just cant wait.
