1998 Suzuki GSXR

It's starting to come together. Here's the fairings. The tank, seat section, and front fender are in primer in my shop.

So how long does it take to get them skills? The work.looks fantastic

Thank you. It all depends on how much you practice really. I've been fortunate, and had some really good teachers. Not to mention helping Tony run TheAirbrushForum, I get to pick up a lot of good info from other people.

Here's the front fender.

Smokin Hot!

1/3 of the seat section. I'm hoping to have this thing done and cleared next week.

Detail shot to show how small some of the lines are.

The other side of the seat section.

Working on a skull for the tank. I cleared some parts today. Still have to cut and buff them. Some metallic white coarse for the Suzuki letters.

Here's a video update. :banana:

cannot wait to see this come together. That's some mighty fine work and its come a long way since the start of the project.

Thanks! I airbrushed the gas tank yesterday, and cleared it this morning. Pictures after it's assembled!

Can't wait!

BTW: I think I have found the paint I want to use on my bike. Can you image the turn signals and stop light as part of the paint?:

I know. I saw this last night and my head was spinning with so many ideas it took me a while to get to sleep.

My motorcycle is only one idea. Can you imagine computer cases painted with this? Depending on how you have to mask and add the voltage wires, you could come up with some pretty interesting designs. Makes me want to take an airbrush class just so I can get certified to use their paint...

I contacted them and one of the companies I use for custom computer chassis to see if I can get one of my vendor certified. I can see custom glowing logo's on the front of a 1U chassis in a rack...

Like I said I have tons of ideas now...

I'll be sending an email soon.

The tank is in for its second round of clear. First coat is flashing right now.

Point out your background in computer modding and show them the work you have done with an airbrush and I think they would be happy to have you licensed to do their work.

BTW: I think part of the licensing program includes techniques on hooking up power to the paint properly. I am sure there are lots of ways top make it happen.

Can't wait to see the final product here...

Thanks, Terry.

The GSXR tank was picked up this morning. He said he's hoping to have it on the road next weekend. HUH????? Next weekend?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I thought he was done with everything else and just needed the tank!

So I guess he's waiting on new fuel lines, but he took a minute to put the tank on. Crappy cell phone pictures, but better pictures and HD video once it's on the road.
