Author Message   Wolfridgerider Posted on Friday, January 28, 2011 - 10:37 pm:        my winter project... silver rattle can paint and a black sharpie to highlight the Buell airbox badge.. With a few coats of rattle can clear no flash with flash before... in progress...   Wolfridgerider Posted on Friday, January 28, 2011 - 10:44 pm:        that should have been Remember THESE things???   Kyrocket Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 08:47 am:        Did you rattle can the wheels too? Looks good by the way. I rattle canned an old '83 Honda once and with some elbow grease and some rubbing compound it turned out really good, for rattle can.   Wolfridgerider Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 08:53 am:        I traded my black wheels for the set of silver with the polished lip. That's one thing I really like about the XB bikes... you can play Mr.Potato Head with them an mix and match parts   Wolfridgerider Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 08:55 am:        I did paint the rear pulley to match...   Ourdee Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 11:33 am:        I liked it black.   Wolfridgerider Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 12:01 pm:        I do to... thats why I have a set of black plastics hang'n on the wall to switch it back when the urge hits...   Buelet Posted on Saturday, January 29, 2011 - 12:42 pm:        I like the silver... never considered it, but it looks good!   Swordsman Posted on Sunday, January 30, 2011 - 08:37 pm:        Sharp! Do anything special to the paint to make it look so smooth? I've always heard you're supposed to "wet sand", or something like that. Any time I've ever attempted smoothing paint, I just scratch it all to hell. ~SM   Wolfridgerider Posted on Sunday, January 30, 2011 - 08:43 pm:        nah... it look bad if you get up close... but its not a parking lot queen. I do like the silver.. I wish it was a color option for the plastics from the factory way back when....   Iman501 Posted on Sunday, January 30, 2011 - 11:44 pm:        I like the silver!!,....but i like that black to....you should buy another bike, so you can have one black one, and one clear one.... it would save garage wall space!   86129squids Posted on Sunday, January 30, 2011 - 11:59 pm:        Mark- I'm guessing Vern might have advised you? He's a pretty fart smeller, when it comes to this stuff... At any rate, looking good from here! Holler sometime!!   Sekalilgai Posted on Monday, January 31, 2011 - 10:11 pm:        looking good
