    Re: Loud enough?

    Hi just wanted to give you a heads up. Ive used PJ1 paint in the past and ive never had it come off. The reason its scratching off easily is because it hasnt cured. The way i do it is, after uning thinners or nitromorse to get the paint off, I clean it with soapy water to get it all off completely.

    Then..and this is the important part. Heat the cases up and then apply thin coats. Works everytime . I use the oven to heat the cases when nobody is around the house.

    Done the soapy water but not the oven bit.
    Must remember that for next time. Thanks.



    That's more like it.

    Might want to keep those on. What color is the tank? What about the front and rear fairings?

    Was going to do it all yellow n black but a tank came up and I've always liked the grey and yellow 97 model.

    I'd love another one but I've got 4 bikes at the mo. If I got another I think the misses would be removing and feeding parts to me.

    Post some pics up, there's always someone after one unless you have something else in mind?
