- April 06, 2014, 18:22:25 PMNope on the bobber, ordering new fender tomorrow. Already had the paint booked and picked before I picked her up. Going with Plasti dip again, in a two tone, one of them a custom colour. Waiting on a quote back for ceramic powder coating on the pipes. Hope to start tearing down this week, but apparently I'm supposed to finish remodelling the bathroom I tore apart last week. Non riders have no idea how to prioritize.

I sure hope the rest of the mods go better! 
Like I said before, Wing.... This is y our excuse to paint it whatever color you want to. I'm mighty partial to two-tone, myself....

- April 03, 2014, 09:28:34 AMYeah that's not just a problem for you guys. Where I live: something like 4,000+ tons of sand, whopping 6 street sweepers. So far the rainstorms have done a better job cleaning the roads than the sweepers.

- April 03, 2014, 08:13:43 AMMostly I did not ride home because the temperature ranged between -3 and -12 over the route of the ride, also the alternating snow and rain. Biggest problem in the northern US and Canada at this time of year is that even if you get a day where it is warm enough to ride the roads are still covered with lots of sand and salt left over from ice melting operations, making them very treacherous, especially corners and intersections.

- April 02, 2014, 17:44:22 PMThe Zambinis are much nicer than the one I found at JP Cycle. More expensive, but lots nicer. I checked at lunch and the one I found fits the front, I wasn't able to find one that fits the rear. Tried several, but nothing was close. I'm not at my bike now, but it seems to me that the rear fender is around 9" wide at the back. I could be remembering it wrong, though.
I've not seen the zambinis up close, but they really look high quality on their website.
