Forks came in today, so it's finally a WHOLE bike again!   ;D

(Sorry for quality; my digi cam isn't the best)

Anodized Bronze.  Spent a whole $6 on paint so far.

Kind of trick looking as a gunmetal gray (that is what I see).
Get a better picture man! :)

Looks good... kinda looks like preseason test MotoGP bike color. By the way.. I took a dump this morning that looked pretty close in color to your bike  ;D ;D

dang... that's cold man.  :-[

but on a serious note.. got a question.  Did you use spray paint for everything? Any clear coat? How about the fuel tank?

Sorry, just had to be said.   ;)

For now, it's just rattle-canned with no clearcoat.  I'm sure it won't last long but I can touch it up.
