:redface:
uch:I got the complete intake system bolted up tonight and i have to drill the exhaust manifold tomorrow to bolt it up... can't wait for that damn thing to be back on Tuesday... I need to finish up the floor, and then install all the ******** I have spent all my money on over the last 5 months haha. Should be able to run it in a couple weeks at the most... :headbang:
I know the feeling, trust me.
Luckily, the engine in this pink one is already tuned - I used it as my main engine while my topend was at Jetworks.
Should be good & ready to go.
Next project is to finish my trailer. Blegh....I Hate working on stuff.
I gotta take pictures of this paintjob in the sun.
It's a pink basecoat, then a pearl coat, then clear.
2 coats of the base pink, then 3 coats of the pearl (Which was mixed heavy, anyways), and three coats of clear.
That thing sparkles like a thousand barbie dolls.

The paint looks good though it's not my cup of tea. :smlove2:
And damn it, you just reminded me of the trailer that I need to fix as well.

DEFINATELY the second one. That first one look like a hack job (No offense to anyone on here if they made it)

Well, upon really looking again, the first oine wouldn't look so bad if you rounded off that edge that comes to a point that is right at the bottom of the handlebars.
They both look equally fine to me.
Thank you,
The Boss.
P.S. Which one did Char choose?
more protection, but slightly heavier... does not matter IMO.

i also like the one in 3ed pic. (on right)
if you dont mind me asking how much was all the paint//pearl/primer & clear? how many cans does it take to spray a ski? /me is looking into it.
PS: i like how you color matched the pissers,, nice job.

Weight for both pads is about the same. They're glass & turf, that's it.
For now, it's got the small one on there, but I will change it.
She doesn't care either way, but I think the bigger one looks better.
Grif: It cost more than I would have liked.
I painted mine & hers for about $500.
That's a gallon of primer ($80), three pints of base color (approx. $100), two pints of pearl ($100), three quarts of clear ($120), plus reducer and activators ($100).
Nice eye about the pissers. I would love to step up and take credit, but I'll go ahead and say that was a complete accident. She didn't like the second pisser I was going to stick on there, I found the clear one, and she liked it better.
