changed my original pelican beak front gaurd today.
the new guard is off a 98 zx6r.
Got home at 4pm finished around 8pm.
doesnt look to bad and its only in primer (grey) for the moment , it was red.
will post some pics when its been sprayed and matches the rest of the bike.

thanx to daisy for the inspiration.

That looks good Gazza. Why don't you paint the rest of the bike Australian Racing Grey to match it

looks a lot better.

Next job?

was thinkng about it
3 problems with painting the beast australian racing grey!!!!!

No.1
would need a fair few cans of paint, that colour aint cheap you know

No.2
the problem with the spraying with the can technique is that you can do some real damage to the index finger through to much cramping.

No.3
the finish that is produced from australian racing grey is rough to the touch and would not be very aero dynamic hence slowing my lap time down
significantly.

looking nice mate

that screen make the ZZR look hot daisy...

Lol, golf balls are dimpled because they spin. Allowing them to push air out of the way. I'm assuming you don't want fairings spinning. Hehe.
