Nice job Dennis - how did you do it? What kind of prep etc? I like the nice
simple design as well.
Of course I would paint everything OD Green...
See ya, Les

Very nice Dennis,
Question though. That white panel on the tank (inside of thigh), is it an
adhesive vinyl or is it paint?
I just painted my bike as well. I went to frame though. I gotta post
pics. My neighbor and friends think I'm nuts.
Anyway, my paint is a matte finish and would like to cover the crotch and
thigh area of the tank with a clear adhesive vinyl, satin is prefered. I
haven't found any yet. If someone knows of a source I'd be very happy.
Did you strip the Tank or paint over it? I stripped every last bit of
paint, on the frames as well. The best stuff in the world for doing this
is called Aircraft remover. Given a good application, a semi warm day and
a couple of beers this stuff will successfully remove your aircraft from
any fine paintjob. Wear about 5 layers of gloves and don't go pee until
you have washed up at least 10 times with GOJO. I got a little drop of
that stuff on my forearm and it literally burned a hole in me. Ouch.

Excellent Alan. I hope that the experience will be similar for all. There
is a slight learning curve, but once we get over it, we'll be fine. One of
the features that I really like is the ability for anyone on the list to go
into their "profile" (from
www.egroups.com) and make any changes they want
with their subscription and settings with only a few clicks. Makes things
very handy if you want to stop your mail (you don't have to unsubscribe) for
the weekend if you're going away, switch to Digest for awhile, etc..
Another thing is trip reports. Previously I had to forward reports to the
list that were sent to me. Now anyone can post from anywhere. (Just
remember your username and password).
Cheers,
Arne
