Red Defector to Blue

[ramo]

yep

I quite like it too @tu*, sort the wheels,

and I would put a bit of summat on the rear cowl to break it it a bit pugwash,

where's the decals from ? they look decent

 

[Pugwash]

I want the wheels black. I might have to figure out how to get them off myself.
I got the decals off ebay a year ago, as I originally planned to wrap the bike. I tried wrapping the front mudguard and quickly gave up.

 

[Centaur]

i have to admit......

having got over the initial shock it's starting to look good. :-0)

 

[Dickiebird]

Especially the seat !!! (Just like mine)h1d1ng2

Well spotted that man! I've re-fitted the nose cone tonight.

That's going to look rather smart when finished.
And as you say, black wheels...definitely.@tu*

 

[Pugwash]

Just the wheels left to do now.

4 cans of primer 500ml
6 cans of "Ford Olympic Blue" 300ml
1 can of gloss black 500ml
3 cans of lacquer 500ml
*some* orange vinyl and black tape

 

[Cougar377]

Nice. Very nice.
But....tax disk holder needs to be black...8rfl@

And what about a black swinging arm and fork legs....@tu*

 

[ramo]

and a black exhaust @tu*

Doesn't look too bad for a rattle can job!!@tu* agree with Limpy about the wheels, when you going to ride it as it doesn't appear to have moved in months judging by how deep the side stand has settled into the ground!! :dunno:

 

[Pugwash]

Contrary to popular belief my bike moved yesterday. I had new tyres fitted Friday which were just about skinned on arrival! New chain supplied by Jaws and oil and filter change following it's MOT. I accidentally won a free track day at Snetterton and felt obliged to use it. :yo:

Still not done those wheels yet...

I might have some track photos tomorrow.

[Pugwash]

Looks interesting but I think I prefer the way I did mine.

I finally fitted a phone holder today. All of the parts from buybits.com although I bought them through Amazon marketplace.

A 1" RAM mount, 12mm hexagon. This just pushes into the yoke hole and tightened up quickly with an allen key. I took the large plastic washer they supplied off and used a spare countersunk aluminium washer from my faring bolts.

A short arm.

And a waterproof phone case. This comes with plenty of foam layers to pack my Nexus 5 in tightly. I'm getting an LG G4 soon so this will fit better.

Under ?60 delivered for the lot. :yo:

I've also now removed the awful yoke protector. The remote trigger for my bullet cam is gone too, as I've stuck a 32GB card in the DVR for hours and hours of tedious footage.

 

[noobie]

Why would you want a tray to put your dinner on whilst riding a bike? :-0)

 

[Pugwash]

Well, got to keep your strength up! I reckon if I fold my bacon sarnies in half they will fit in the pouch a treat.

 

[Dickiebird]

Were you in Wells Next the sea sometime last week, Pugwash ? If not, you've been cloned !!!

 

[Pugwash]

Yeah briefly passed through but carried on to Hunstanton. I think it was Monday?

 

[Dickiebird]

You were heading away from Hunstanton when I saw you , i.e. West to East. :dunno:

 

[Pugwash]

Hmm not sure where then? I came in from the east end of the quay, pulled into the car park by Ark Royal to set my satnav up again and left towards Holkham.
Google decided going through Docking would be better so that was an adventure!
