Thank you for the compliments :)  

I powder coated a lot of the parts (tank, swing arm, etc) the frame was 
painted using a KBS motorcycle frame kit, its some thick stuff, maybe 
should of thinned it out but in the end I'm happy, though if I had a large 
enough oven I would of loved to powder coat the frame also.  

There is some minor work left, side panels need to be painted and some 
touch ups on the frame from where I was trying to put the engine back in, 
and I don't like the aftermarket rear turn signals.  I don't think I'm 
going to do the decals, I do like the red scheme but the problem would be 
clear coating, really clear coat has to be chemical cross linked and should 
be put on with in a window of the base coat.  So being the automotive paint 
used on the plastics is dried and the tank was powder coated, I'm sure the 
clear would fail and I personally don't care for clear coat, I'd rather top 
coat with 5-6 layers and color sand it followed by polish and wax.
