Okay, I was being careless...

[Relsek]

I was working on a hump mod so I could store a spare face shield in it and apparently didn't have it securely mounted to the base. During a hard acceleration it just flew off and almost hit the rider behind me. It's a bit scratched up but not cracked. Does anyone have any ideas for a cool hump paint scheme?

How can you go riding!!! it is pouring rain here!!! and snowing in the mountains!!! don't you have any sympathy for us California folks!!!

Kevin.. the only idea that comes to mind is for you to paint a really really small face shield on the side of the hump…

Didn't you go for a ride in Nevada while we were still dealing with hurricanes? (or the aftermath of hurricanes) I think it's only fair.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, the hump doesn't bounce very well.

Are you talking about painting the whole bike...If not just paint it original and be done...

Sorry to hear about that..............glad you managed to retrieve the hump and it wasn't totally trashed!!!

 

[monsterspeedfreak]

Send it to Bullettrain.....I'm sure he'd love to practice on it!!!

Sucks man. Like Stunnah said, go with stock unless you are going to paint the whole bike.

Does anybody know of a source for some matching paint that I may be able to use to repair it myself?

color-rite.com, bro...

color-rite.com, bro...

Thanks

 

[Relsek]

Guess what, I went there and the Purple is listed as "not yet available" Maybe I'll just get some of those bullet hole looking stickers and stick on it until I can get the paint.

Does this mean that if the bike had to be repainted, the paint is not available, or just not through Color Rite?

color-rite.com, bro...

That is exactly what the dealer told me when I chipped mine...

They can match it up perfectly...

However, it is not cheap...

I would just put the seat on, but the hump is one of the coolest parts of the bike. I think I'd rather use a scratched hump than the seat.

 

[PACIFICBUSA]

probably just not available through color-rite yet.
