Jeez, I'm excited!
Sorry, folks,
but I've just got most of the bits back from the powder coaters...seventh heaven? Pah! Been there etc. Take a look at the shiny stuff...Carlisle Powder Coaters have done me and my Raptor proud...believe me, the piccy doesn't do it justice. On the right is my daughter, Megan. She ran around the house shouting 'Bellissimo!' when she saw it...nice touch.

Re: Jeez, I'm excited!
Cheers, Shed,
The powder coating cost £250, that includes the wheels and fork stanchions, not shown. The stanchions are 'Raven black'. The daughter has already cost much more than that...and rising!

Re: Jeez, I'm excited!
Looking good, it's fun getting all the bits back together, just take your time, one trick I've used in the past is to rip rags into strips and "bandage" the frame etc to prevent damage during the re-assembly.

Your model is a sweet looking lassie...bless
Now, point me to one of your threads, I need a picture of a nakid tank to compare to a V.....supposed to be the same, but unsure!

Re: Jeez, I'm excited!
I've just realised that my bike looks a little drab .
Can't wait to see yours finished, Mark. I bet you can't either.
