Hey kaeon your gonna paint the swingarm and the wheels black too right. oh and have you decided on an exhaust?

Kaeon
08-30-2008, 05:17 AM
Yes the swing arm is going to be Black. As for the wheels they will either be all Black, Black with a Green Lip, Or Green.

The wheel stripes they make for sportbikes would be sick on your bike, the lime green stripes on a black rim

I think you should paint the wheels black with a green pinstripe lipthumbsup2

its coming along very nice...now how about an update on the custom exhaust. Haha im very impatient when it comes to people building very tasteful but badass bikes.

Hmm it should? I would think? How much you want for it?

Ghost Rider
08-30-2008, 06:09 PM
why dont you sand down the stock x7 cap and paint it black? It will fit a lot better and look more stock.

Oh I should of mentioned that the person who had this bike before me crushed the cap lol so I don't have a stock cap.

Ghost Rider
08-30-2008, 06:24 PM

what kind of paint are you using?? clear?? HOK, RM, Dupont, Sherwin Williams??
The color looks great, the gold pearl really pops out..... That color reminds me of the old VW Beetles, they had a simular color...
