That's pretty damn close. Might have it mixed a hair darker, but that's pretty much it. :thumbs up

If I ever own a shop, I'm getting a sand blaster. Sand paper is expense, and it's shit at removing paint. :lol:

And fuck Black & Decker and their stupid sanders that die when they get too much dust in them :rolf:



I tried to finish the F4 tank tonight, but the sander was K.I.A. and the power tool batteries died before I could finish getting the laaaaast little paint strip off. Maybe I'll get to hear it run again tomorrow...

Quit your bitching.

[94RS]

Finished with that tank yet? :mrgreen:

 

[R13]

The tank itself is finished... didn't get time to install it yet.

Plus I've got fucking pink eye so being in my dark garage with bright lights on hurts like hell :lol:

Suuuurely I'll have it running again tomorrow. Probably not :rolf:

 

[94RS]

You disgusting fucker... How did you manage to get pink eye? That gf of yours forget to shower or something? :lol:

 

[R13]

Brake cleaner in my eye, smoke/fumes off of burning gear oil, all while I was outside on a 35 degree windy ass day with no eye protection like a dumbass :lol:

 

[94RS]

That's a shit excuse. What else ya got?

 

[R13]

Idk... maybe she did give it to me, fuck if I know.

If I get it again then she can start showering more or I'm out... not about to date a chick that's dirtier than my grease monkey ass :lol:

 

[94RS]

Here ya go kerd, more reason to find an XB12.

That's on the original engine.

 

[R13]

That looks like a newer one too with all black everything. :lol:

 

[94RS]

It's the lighting making it look black, the guy says it's an 09. Meaning graphite frame like the rest of the 04-08 12's. Uly's only had black frames in 2010.... But good luck finding any 2010 Buell. :lol:

 

[R13]

So I flash burned my eye with a cutting torch... no pink eye. I'm gonna try to get the F4 running today, but let's just say I imagine this is about what getting your eye scooped out with a spoon feels like :rolf:

I've had more injuries this year than I've had my entire life. Getting clumsy or some shit.
