A friend of mine has been building this early 80's RZ350 - it has been equiped with a carbon fiber 650 rear swing arm, carbon rear fender, and front a rear 650 wheels and tire - has a modern front set (slips my mind which one) - upgraded brakes and custom exhaust - the aftermarket seat is carbon fiber but it didn't cure clear and will be painted - I'm the lucky guy who gets to paint this tank and seat and after much blocking I finally laid down the polyurethane primer and should be starting the colour coats by the weekend...In April the bike will be completed and I will try to get some better pics at the show it will be in! It already is, but it's definitely going to be a cool 2 stroke!

So you paint Bikes Hammer?

once in a while - this is the first bike in a few years - it's very time consuming and I fit it into my daily routine usually in the winter - I've been working on this one since December and should have it wrapped up in March - I usually only paint if there's lots of time to finish the job - this one will be four colours and it needed a lot of blocking - after this I have another tank and small fairing and that I would like to have done by end of April early May - I'd like to do more and cars as well but I limited with space and I cant commit too much time so I stick to occasional bike stuff...

I wish I was involved earlier on this bike - I would of liked to paint the frame and wheels as well - the frame currently looks like rattle can black but it would have been nice to match it to the tank and seat...

Be interesting to see how well this s electric bike sells and maybe there will be Tesla like kick backs to save Harley from the loud lumpy sounds of yesteryear to silence
