Hmm. I quite like that I do. What paint and what application method? As in, was in an aerosol job? Did you spend much effort on the pre-prep? I've always wanted to turn the ZZR into a black one, especially after I scuffed the fairing. Good gloss black is too much effort/expense. A nice stealth black on the other hand....
Yep aerosols - Holts Satin Black. Preparation was mainly just feathering the edges where the decals were, as they were under the lacquer. Then a quick once over with 160 grit paper. The problem is 'normal' paint isn't fuel resistant, & using a fuel resistant lacquer turns satin into gloss. So you either have to make damn sure you never spill fuel on it, or try to track down some Sperex Tough Black Satin - easier said than done. A local motor factors will order some for me, but only if I take 12 cans :-/ -- Krusty. http://www.muddystuff.co.uk http://www.muddystuff.us Off-road classifieds '02 MV Senna '03 Tiger (FOYRNB) '96 Tiger '79 Fantic 250
It'll still be over 200kgs, so yes. Although David Knight's riding a 950 KTM in this year's Welsh 2-day Enduro, so a god like him would manage ok! The Tig should be perfect for Salisbury Plain though, which is where it'll do most of its playing. -- Krusty. http://www.muddystuff.co.uk http://www.muddystuff.us Off-road classifieds '02 MV Senna '03 Tiger (FOYRNB) '96 Tiger '79 Fantic 250
