My 99's makeover in progress

Moloko, i painted my bike last year so can relate how much work is involved in this project. Love your liter tail sticking up high like motogp racer. Lots of imagination went into this project..super cool. Keep postin up.
 
The hump on my Busa is what makes it different from other bikes :)

I wouldn't change that about mine :)
Interesting build tho !!!

Can't wait to see the results

Yeah, If i'd of stuck with the original tail I'd be done a long time ago. :banghead:

looking sweet , that frame was some masking mission ,

nice work :thumbsup:

Yeah, we wanted to mask it once... so far, aside from fixing a few holes in the foil here and there we've accomplished that. Guess we'll see if we accomplished it successfully when we pull it all off and check for overspray.

Zook-Hay! Yeah man, it's a ton of work. I'm pretty anxious to get it back together. I can't wait to see how well she performs with all the upgrades though. Should have a bit more power and a bit less weight.

And an obligatory pic since I'm posting here:
Looks like a mirror ball right now, thing will straight up blind you in the sun! hahaha

It's amost starting to look like we're gettin somewhere with this thing. Thinking I'm not gonna lace it after all, maybe next winter? Shouldn't have to tear it down that much if I decide to do it.

Got to sand this round a bit, get it pinstriped, then another round of clear, cut buff, and assemble.
Painting in the garage leaves something to be desired, had a bit of an 'incident' with the tank, so it gets redone tomorrow. I think everything else turned out rather well.

Lots of buffing to do still. Should have it finished tonight though. Got the wireing finished and put the tank on and she fired right up! That was a relief. New exhaust sounds awesome!

The side plastic is just sitting there(green tape), wanted to see what it looked like.

Well, the sun isn't out... so no sparkly sun shots. Just finished up... cept, can't get the rear brake to bleed out. Won't build pressure at all.
Not perfect, but it's not a show bike or anything...
