About to turn around and strip the tins a 3rd time. It’s going to get a satin black paint job from left over tins from work.

Did you do anything regarding upgrade to the valve springs? I had one with a cam and a little head work in it in my first stockcar and they were the built in rev limiter at around 7500rpm. You probably know this but pay attention to the oil pump drive. They’re a great little motor apart from those two things

Yep, fine by me

Must be time again gents….someone pick a date and time…I’m in Melbourne again late this month

Yeah. I wanna stay with the yellow. I’m just gonna run the base coat and wax the shit out of it. Back guard also frittered so that’s a strip as well.

I am soooo Fricking tempted to go get two tins of Matt black and be done with it. Dont buy Rustoleum paint

For fucks sakes. Supposedly compatible. Same brand same everything. CUNT

FYI there is now a Northland OS Facebook page. I’ve invited everyone I can think of so if I’ve missed anyone give me a holler. This was permitted with consultation with El Presidente

Back guard still needs a bit of love

Another

It’s yellow. Still needing clear

Pictureless update due to being angry at myself. Had tank and front guard in top coat and had sanded the couple of small runs out. Gave it a wipe down with a rag and some prepsol. Let it dry and started putting on the (what I thought would be) topcoat before the clear. Finished up and left them in the sun. Went back half an hour later and the frigging lot has reacted. Turns out this Rustoleum paint doesn’t like prepsol. FUCK IT ALL. so front guard has been ripped back to bare steel again. Tank tomorrow. Faaaaaarrrrrrrrkkkkkkk it all

Good stuff Greg. I like it

Lol. It was a decision made between me, wife and daughter. I was absolutely done and lucid at the time

Bought paint yesterday. It’s bright. YELLOW. Throwback to my old days where my first 2 bike were yellow. I think it will look okay
