its easy if your subscribed, but failing that, get a photo host such as photobucket, put your photos on there, than paste and copy onto here, or just supply the link and someone nice here will do it

Owe , it's getting blacker by the minute

Is that a black tank cover or have you gone for a Civil styleeeey finish

It's a black Baglux type tank cover thing covering the silver tank. I've saved the silver beak so I can change it back if I want. The one I've painted is my old yellow one from when the bike was yellow.

It's getting confusing

I think the rear bevel will get done too

stop fecking about and get it built up

are you doing the wheels black too for that invulnerable, invincible, invisible look

They're already black, I haven't cleaned them for two years
