Red Tins!


Here are the freshly coated tank, fenders, air intake and side cover awaiting installation.


Here's a test fit photo - looking good!  I'll need to stripe the gas tank and finish some small detail work, like the emblem restoration.


My body work wasn't all that good - there are some ripples in the front fender and the gas tank isn't as nice as I'd like because I didn't get the weld marks totally smoothed - but it's good enough for riding and I have a very smooth spare tank that I will work on after I get this bike running.  I'll swap out the tanks when I'm done and make this tank my "spare" (in case of damage to the other tanks).


Looks great when compared to what I started with (below):
