Very nice. Not really a fan of flames myself -I'd keep it minimalist & subtle. Nice.

Yep its one colour I love to bits when I dont have to paint 3 or 4 bikes in it one after the other lol..... 8 coats of House of Kolor Kandy Apple Red over a Deep Pearl Black Basecoat of about 6 coats, then 16 coats of clear & its paint to die for lol.......Flames I am planning will be very minimal as dont want to take anything away from the Red but just enough to give it a little kick...I did toy with the idea of Black & White Chequers down middle of Tank & Rear Mudguard but decided against that.......Rear Mudguard I took back to bare metal again today as had a slight blemish bleeding through the basecoat & would rather get it right...Scrubbed the Blue coating off the Rear Tyre as everything lined up where it was supposed to go, so now just a case of putting the rear back together with the new adjusters ect...Having a day off tomorrow to nip down Burnouts to grab some bits ( 1 being a pop up chrome petrol cap ) & I always end up getting a few extras when I go visit lol.....Sunday will be a day of either masking out the flames or sticking the rear end on.....Voodoo....
