Squeak 17 #52 October 23, 2011 Quote That went from the backburner to almost done in a hurry! Also I jhave just had a 2 week term break so i could work on it day and night for 14 days. It's the fiddly bits that are taking time now. Anodiser FORGOT to do my job on my foort pegs, so that's ANOTHER week delay, wiring is more complex than expected, more delay etc... They just keep adding up. Ceramic coating wont be ready until AT LEAST Thusday this week. Then Road trip south for a halloween mini boogie, so no work on the bike this weekend, already the earliest I can have it on the road WITHOUT upholstered seating is 2 weeksYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

I'm serious, that's freak'n awesome. Umm detail would fall under the Black majic voodoo banner. I knew i wanted them black and asked around for the best way to coat them,. things that won't work well Paint (fuel fuggs it up) Powder coating (see paint) Anodsing (no one would touch "cast" alloy) And then Ceramic coating (sure no probs bring 'em down) You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!
