New paint for my 2004 Z1000
I painted my Z over the winter and did my usual shitty drunken job. It's not bad if you don't get too close. Cheers.

Great that you posted up the fruits of your labour OM, but not sure how....."dead" the site is? I thought it was still reasonably vibrant??

My 17 year old son picked the color. I paint the tank a different colour every year. You would think after all these years of painting I would be an accomplished painter, but it still is a shitty job. Maybe if I try it sober?????Possum wrote:Why Blue?

Maybe next year, you pick the colour, and let your son paint it ?
