Has anyone done rhino liner on a motorcycle? Do you think it'll work on the plastics of a lightning? | ||
| Spiderman |
I was thinkin about doin my frame before I settled on powdercoat. It should work on plastic and if the lining ever peels they will replace it (well that is at least what the dealer told me) Give your local dealer a call, I think the plastic would look cool Rhinoed. BTW they don't color match, they just have basic colors... | ||

It sticks to anything! I know of BMW dual sport guys that use it. Do a search, there is nice stuff (less grainy) than the Rhino Liner brand. | ||

Have it in the bed of my truck. Neat stuff One concern would be added weight. Most sport bike owners look for ways to reduce weight. And the weight added would be up high. Overall probably insignificant, but just thought I would mention it | ||

Why would you put rhino liner on your bike???? | ||
| Angelwild327 |
Thanks guys, I found another liner place called X-Liner also that got good reviews. The rhino liner site says they do custom colors too.. I'll check on the weight..all I want done is the airbox cover and the windscreen, hopefully it won't add a ton of weight, I think they can make it a little thinner than an actual truck lining thickness Max..honestly, and this is no offense to Erik Buell.. but I think the blue is well..just kinda gay looking to me..so I wanted to do something out of the ordinary, and I friend suggested the liner coating..I think it would look pretty cool and rugged, even if I get it in hot pink..lol.. Don't mind me, I'm a little weird! HUGS | ||

So the blue is gay but the pink wouldn't be? | ||
| Angelwild327 |
lmao..yeah, you have a point...and luckily I am not ever going to have a pink bike..it was just humorous sarcasm. Actually it'll be either black or something like a midnight purple | ||
| Odie |
Guess I'll be painting mine pink since it's less gay......just kidding, I'm anxious to see how it turns our regardless of the color.....  | ||
| Cataract2 |
Wonder if you could use it on the bottom of the muffler to prevent rusting from starting. | ||
| U4euh |
Dang Odie, your bike looks sharp with the CX plastics! Angel-wonder if they could fade from one color to another, that would be badAzz. | ||

cant have to much texture!!! | ||
| No_rice |
pre uly off road xb! saw some pics of that awhile ago, airborne and all. some of that undercoating and bedliner doesnt paint up to bad. then you could have any color you want, and do it at home for next to nothing. | ||
| Angelwild327 |
OMG..cool pink fuzzy bike..not gay at all..lmao.. and when I say gay, I don't mean it offensively.. Yeah..I think it would be cheap too, since an entire bedliner costs 3-500 dollars.. I wonder if they could embed glitter into it.. I doubt there could be any fade-effect, maybe who knows..if I find someone artsy-fartsy to do it, or maybe I could just rubber dip the whole damn thing! Me likey rubber..lol See..I have this dress in purple rubber.. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y127/angelwild327/dress1.jpg Maybe I could do the bike to match HUGS  | ||
| Odie |
Thanks U4euh....see ya in March?????? | ||
| No_rice |
i know there are a few companys that will graphic with the bedliners. dif colors or what ever you would want. and i dont believe you have that dress in purple, or that you wear it(think a pic could prove me wrong though, lol) | ||
| Angelwild327 |
Rice ...I don't want to scare the entire board with my eccentric collection of non-work attire..like these shoes..and NO, I don't wear them to ride.. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y127/angelwild327/DSC00153sm.jpg suffice it to say, I do truly own that dress, in purple and several other rubber/latex items of clothing.. I will visit the rhino and xliner shops this week and find out what they can do for me... maybe..maybe if I wear the dress I'll get a discount..lol (Message edited by angelwild327 on January 01, 2006) (Message edited by angelwild327 on January 01, 2006) | ||

thats karin erzberg-mairitsch (whatever) on her furry pink xb12s lightning adventure bike, more action pics here. http://www.bilder.adventurebike.de/html/buellberg.html     | ||
| Angelwild327 |
Wow..I think I love her...now she only needs pink fuzzy dice.. wonder if she has a brother.. | ||

Wild Angel, I met a guy in San Antonio that had done his whole M2 in spray on bedliner (black). Looked VERY tough. Haven't seem him lately, though, so I don't know if it has continued to stick.

I had my old truck Rhino lined and it looked great when it was new. After a summer it faded to a flat black where it was exposed to the sun. That might be something to ask about before you try spraying your air box. Just my two cents. Matt | ||
| U4euh |
Angel-you tease! lol We like rubber, favorite part of, um, uh my bike! yea that's it Odie-got plans rolling already. Trying to get some of the C-3 group to go with this time. | ||
| Jlnance |
thats karin erzberg-mairitsch Does anyone here know her personally? It would be really cool to have her post something here on badweb, or perhaps someone could do an email interview with her. Guess it would help to speak German.  | ||
| Johnb |
Seems to be German only.. http://www.hillbilly-motors.com/html/karin_erzberg.html  | ||

Hey ya' know...someone who was good at sewing could make velcro changeable fuzzy covers for buells..it would actually be pretty easy, even for the airbox cover...I mean, if you men were ever in the market for fuzzy box covers.. As for the rhino lining fading, I think there's some clearcoat they can put on it..I've heard rave reviews of the X-liner, so I might consider their product first..again, both manufacturers have a shop about 5 or so miles from me..so I will keep you all posted. Hopefully they could tape off the buell logo, as I'd like it to stay out in the open! | ||
| Lovematt |
I have had rhino lining for a while on my truck...it does fade but most plastics do this too. If you spray silicone protectant or something like Armor All it brings back the color pretty good.... | ||
| Drift |
Odie, is your front tire on backwards? I noticed the tread looked like it is running incorrectly. Just checking on ya dude. | ||
| Odie |
Drift- I have found that I get triple the life out of all my tires if I run them backwards. Traction sucks but I save a lot of money........not really, it's on right!!! I check before I leave any place that does my tires as I have had them put on backwards. They are Michelin Pilot Powers. Love 'em. Later, Odie. | ||
| Spike |
I had a buddy who had all the bodywork on his Bandit 1200 covered in rhino lining. It looked really cool against the dark blue frame. | ||
| Angelwild327 |
Spike, Thanks for the info, I'm really excited now about it. I'm thinking I might do the frame now too...maybe a different color from the plastics. |
