TroyBrock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Posted April 10, 2014 Painted the head, working on the cylinders right now Quote
TroyBrock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Posted April 10, 2014 I used engine enamel so at least it will stand up to the heat. I'm experimenting with colors before I shell out the money for powdercoating. I understand I should be shunned for using rattle cans but oh well. Quote
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted April 10, 2014 Report Posted April 10, 2014 I used engine enamel so at least it will stand up to the heat. I'm experimenting with colors before I shell out the money for powdercoating. I understand I should be shunned for using rattle cans but oh well. Rattle cans are fine for a jalopy bike. They make jalopy bikes look like pretty shiny jalopy bikes. But once you go to a Bling Ride…the rattle cans have to get put away. Quote
TroyBrock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Posted April 10, 2014 Everyone knows my 87 is a jalopy bent special. No one in their right mind would do anymore than rattle can this thing. Waiting for cylinders to dry Quote
TroyBrock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Posted April 10, 2014 Quick mock up before I head to bed. What do you guys think? It looks alittle tractor like to me but that will just make whoever I smoke with it feel dumber, they just got smoked by a tractor Quote
03DMshee Posted April 10, 2014 Report Posted April 10, 2014 Im digging the MERICA' theme....now do it tasteful and do it right.. I have been planning a "freedom" build for sometime myself. .. Quote
tdod101 Posted April 10, 2014 Report Posted April 10, 2014 Agreed ^ Do the bottom cases blue Or go canada style and do it red Quote
Nieskes Posted April 10, 2014 Report Posted April 10, 2014 Looks amazing my jaw just dropped. 1 Quote
TroyBrock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Posted April 10, 2014 I wasn't shooting for red white and blue but I'll consider it, I'm not a very patriotic person... I was just shooting for red, white and polished. I was planning on doing the bottom case white with the stator red with white YAMAHA and clutch cover red, clutch cover plate white and red YAMAHA.

TroyBrock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Posted April 10, 2014 Looks amazing my jaw just dropped. I'm not sure but that's coming off as hard sarcasm haha Quote
Deadbeat Posted April 10, 2014 Report Posted April 10, 2014 head and jugs look sharp fresh painted those colours, how the rest of the bike will look with white pegs and kicker and stuff...i dunno can always change it up later if its not working, or powder coat those parts if you want it to last Quote
TroyBrock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Posted April 10, 2014 I'm putting it all back together today, I'll try to get some pictures up tonight. Quote
