Continuing - So what did you do to your bike today...?

[grog]

sheepskins rule, mine is over 30 yrs old, still works perfectly. rear for mrs is few yrs only. warm, cool, no sliding. when you camp, a great pillow. give it a scotchguard spray, water just rolls off. best invention ever. maybe not but up there.

Worth every penny for a more comfortable bum on long rides

Swingarm get a primer coat.
What do you think - what paint is better as a main coat - wheel or engine?

[Red Biker]

I'm sure one of the paint experts will be along to advise Northern, what colour are you doing?

[northern]

You know, Red...
It's hard to admit, but after some thinking, I decide to paint swingarm black... 

First, I want to do it white... But white swingarm is only for show bikes. And mine will not be a showroom bike
Then I was thinking about gold... But just for a fraction of a second 

as a result - it will be BLACK

Toolbox sounds interesting but probably too expensive for me to consider.

Not quite bike related as it's not moved since going to Scotland at the beginning of feb but I took my leathers in to get fixed today. I fixed seams falling apart would get annoying over the summer when it arrives.

Now I have a replacement swing arm thats Black (Thanks again Del) I would say Black is the way to go.

[Red Biker]

So much love for Black on here  , the swing arm was how I started so take note 

Wise choice Northern

Once down the darkside you go forever will it control your destiny 

[Hooli]

Once you go black, we don't want you back 

[Speedy1959]

An early Christmas prezzy to myself arrived at work today...
Yipee !!

[northern]

Paint still wet, but no turning back
year ago, it was slightly different...

[Speedy1959]

Hi Northern..
I think you've done the right thing..
Also the black paint covers up that awful crack nicely !!!

[Red Biker]

Yeah looking good Northern 👍

I sometimes look back at old pictures and I'm very happy with how mines turned out. No reflection on others but I really don't like the oem alloy on alloy at the chain adjusters, sends a shiver down my spine 😩

As we always focus on the parts we love, Be interested to hear others least favourite part of their bike?

[northern]

Thx, mates! I like polished look, but cleaning it is pain in the... So I went the easy way
But tank and rear end will stay white

I personally hate when front wheels get dirty - because of brake disks it's very hard to clean them
