At last all the spray painting is done. I can't spray inside as my workshop is in the cellar so would fill the house with paint fumes. So i prefer to spray outside in direct sunlight, fortunately it has been warm and sunny the last few days so i've got it all done. The downside to spraying outside other than having to rely on the weather, is the insects. Midgies in particular, they seem to love the smell of lacquer and waste no time in landing in it before it dries! It's best to wait until the lacquer is dry then brush them off .... they do however leave their legs and an odd wing behind, an added effect i would say!
The new seat base is finished too.
Saxon seats are going to do the foam and covering work, and have quoted a good price in return for adding their logos to the seat. After looking at some of the excellent work on their website i've gone for a vinyl suede cover.
The bike in the background is my previous project, my partners 1990 Suzuki RG125.
