the after

took a while
but
the dupli-color shadow works fine on chrome
sucks on polished aluminum
it does what it says, turns shiny chrome black
young son and I wanted to play with plasti-dip
which is what I used on the bike
down tubes, fenders, tank and side covers
I tried thinning as directed and shooting it through a spray gun
sucked
guess it only works through a power spayer - wagner or something comparable
just clogs the nozzle of a gun
shaker can it was
hit that with a matte clear, rejet the carbs - thunder stage 3 kit
changed out the fork springs and bars
chopped - hacked - the exhaust some and added a Klock Werks end cap and
BAM!!!
new to me bike
maybe I'll drop the exhaust and neaten the cut
but
prolly not - it works as is
pics


and graphics - the kid finally got to play with his airbrush


the end cap mellowed out the exhaust and back pressure is good


and there ya have that
have fun y'all!!
