    Bike is ready for the road.

    Put everything back together, did some wet sanding and polishing on the fork lowers, engine cases and brake drum case. I think it came out pretty good.

    Here are the process photos, and the finished product. Silver flash glitter blast base, duplicolor metalcast candy coats. I'm happy for my first go at it. I know I can improve my process for the future.

    Need new cam shaft seal,oring & gasket

    I've just installed a new cam seal on the Rhs of the motor, and fired it up for the first time. Thing just started gushing oil out. I bought the superceded part # from a Yamaha dealer in town. Maybe I didn't install it correctly, so I'll have to check again and see. Ryan

    ha, thanks. The thick scallop I used proper line tape, hence why it is so much sharper than the rest. The other side scallop, I purposefully made it all chopped like it is.

    ah, its just my shitty painting of the size. I used a tempate to rough in the stars. Its the fact I didnt mask them off that caused the issues you note. I agree totally with you btw as well.

    Awesome, this is the kind of feedback I was after. Thats just the 'southern cross', its an Australian thing. I have one on all my vehicles. It's just a reminder of home. Hence why the bike is 'bogan'. Also, these are all just tests to see how the leaf applies, and how easy it is to work with...
