Looks good... but maybe you can help me. Why did you need to paint the front fender. It's not already the same color as the rest of the bike? If not, you were obviously jipped.

Edited to add: I just looked @ your pics over in the other sandbox. I see it doesn't come the same color as the bike. I like your idea much better.

Impressive. You made a great looking bike look even better. Glad you painted that front fender.

Frecken bike is clean ....paint looks great even the flat colors look great. I use to use stuff called 303 and it worked great. Looks like a bike that's barely ridden
