I see you deleted the windscreen, as well?
have you taken her for a spin, as yet?
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get it on the road yet. Kind of crazy actually. We have a graduated licencing system in place here....I have a beginners licence (M1). The intent of this license it to get you on the street (with conditions) in order for you to learn so that you can move up through to the next level (M2). The problem is, no one wants to insure an M1 driver (unless you have $5000). So, I am waiting to take a rider training course next week so that I can get my M2 certificate (you actually have to wait 60 days until this is recognized by the MTO here). Once I get my M2, insurance drops to between $1100-1300 per year. At this point, I can register the bike and get it plated (you can't do this without insurance). Ill have to get the bike safety inspected again since my safety certificate only lasts 36 days from the date of purchase....Ill be about a week overdue on this so more money and hassle to have to get that done again...
I would do things differently next time that is for sure! I would have booked my M2 course even before I got the bike since they provide the bikes at the training course anyway.

I must admit the bike looks good. I always liked black and white bikes as long as they aren't behind me. Nice job on the emblems as well. Really makes the tank "Pop."

- April 24, 2019, 09:45:29 AMThanks Tom, no pro, just an amateur who's done a few painting projects. This is my first two tone so that was a little different...I need to learn how to mask a little better as I have a little mist through my masking in certain areas.
Yes, I've read many post by Ratman and he seemed like a really nice fellow and a well respected, life of the Forum kinda guy.
Sanding and buffing this morning...not going incredibly well but good enough. Going to pick up my tires now.
Cheers
