@gazza61 number 1 plate - did you borrow it off Tommy Bridewell?

Nice bike, they sound awesome when they’re up in the higher revs.

@gazza61 Beautiful bike! I got my start on a CBR F4, and later, a CBR 929 RR. Next to Ducati, no one does paint like Honda does on their high-end bikes. And those HRC colors are gorgeous! Congrats on the new weapon.

I had a wild ride yesterday on a bike I never thought I'd bother to consider. Man, was I wrong.

That thing is an absolute sled. And the handling breaks my brain. I kind of want it...

@NickD its a limited edition 1 of 10 the rider I chose was John McGuinness who rides with the number 1 it looks even better in the flesh.

@Bobcat-Sig thank you just picked it up today swapped my 2025 honda 600rr for a down payment, still using my zzr1400 for touring they are very addictive.

I’m super slow with getting around to this project. Too many distractions. Here’s the base cost with shimmer over it. Time to tape it for pinstriping…

@Denimhead-0 I used to ride all Winter long,and the general rule of thumb is to wear one more layer than you think you need,and if your chest is warm then your extremities would be a little warmer. You’re not even close to being dressed for it,and while you might be cold AF,you look cool AF!

@goosehd rattle can, I’m not equipped for a high end paint job. Would be sweet but I can’t justify the cost - it’s not a show bike. It’s nice paint though, I found a spot that does quality stuff in cans. The 2K clear coat is really what makes the difference. All for about 80 bucks. I’ll follow up with the tape removal and clear job. And of course the finished install!

@Denimhead-0 the cold def makes the ride more intense, it’s what I love about riding is the elements.

The reason I needed to do this paint job so bad is because I was riding last January after they brined the roads for a snow - I got caught in a downpour and me and the bike got soaked in salt water. I couldn’t stop laughing the whole way home at just how brutal it was. I warmed up by the fire with a drink and never washed the bike lol

[WhiskeySandwich]

Pulled a little of the flake off with the tape but not half bad

[goosehd]

@WhiskeySandwich might be able to fix it with a puddle of paint (spray it on cardboard until it pools) and use a small artist’s paintbrush to touch up the spots.

Looks great!!

[WhiskeySandwich]

@goosehd thanks! That’s exactly what I did with some of the spray paint that was left. Will have to lightly sand it but looks good from a few feet away

[goosehd]

@WhiskeySandwich The clear coat will hide a few sins as well…I was just looking and see that there are candy clears you can buy (rattle can). Going to put a colour over it?

[WhiskeySandwich]

@goosehd I wasn’t planning on it but it but now I’m considering it!

@WhiskeySandwich love it! Excellent job
