Here is what I'm finishing up before Project Raider can begin. Unfortunately I only have the time and room for one at a time

Project Powder Coat

Guess I would say it's a blasting/coating/painting sort of affair

The link tells the story :thumbs:

Looks great! I hope you were able to do the grab rails and side covers with one can. The paint looked real good so I checked it out and it is $33.95 a can. Ouch!

I like you lift too. Is it anchored to the floor? Is it stable?

Not anchored. Just sort of sits there and holds it. You can wrench on it, push it or whatever... it's not moving.

sweet ride! i got a gpz550, kind of a little brother to that bike i guess. needs a lot of work so who knows if I'll ever finish it, got 3 other bikes too.... i tend to collect things, tractors, cycles, guitars....

thats neat thanks for sharing :thumbs:

[Trouty56 567]

That is fantastic work. My wife would complain about the paint also. Looking forward to seeing some powder coating on that Raider. :thumbs:

Didn't need to see much past the color to know what was coming!

Great bike, and excellent work. I briefly owned an old (1975?) KZ-1B...the original 900cc "super bike". Guess that would be this bikes "grandfather"! Looks like the grandkid is ready to kick some ass and take some names!

Beautiful. Maybe a video at some point? Would love to hear those pipes...

(This is not my actual bike, but one just like it.)

That's nice!

A buddy of mine had a an 1100 of that same vintage.

Nice job. I am a Wing rider myself. I have a friend of mine that has what I believe is a 78 KZ1000. Last year we put new sprockets on it to get a little more speed out of it. That thing is hoot to ride. But, the older I get the more I really like my Lazy-Boy on wheels :thumbs:

As if it wasn't already pretty damn fast?!?!?!

I tip my helmet to you sir! :thumbs:

Probably not the best thing to say when you're talking about a motorcycle. :thumbs:

Better said than laying one down. :thumbs:

Probably meant the front tire.
