That turned out really nicely. I like the top box too.

In reply to octavious:

How does it not peel off the tank where your knees touch it?

I dont't know. I ride like they teach in the MSF course, in that squeeze the tank with my knees like the Russian chick from James Band squeezing that fat general. So far it is not scratched, peeled, or marked in anyway.

I'll get some more pics at lunch when I go out to it.

Also I don't wash the bike. It's kind of like a DD beater, I hop on, turn the key, and ride. It has never been washed with soap and water since I put on the plastidip, and there is ton of miles since I put on the dip as well, with no chips.

For what little bit I have into the plastidip I am pretty happy with the results and performance.

Thanks. I wanted to do their yellow, I mean an all yellow garage would be awesome, but I didn't want to spend the extra $2 a can until I saw how the white turned out and worked. I may still follow up with yellow just because I think it would be sweet!!!

Also I like how that blue and black came out.

Thanks man. It was you painting yours with it that finally pushed me to say "screw it" and give it a try. I didn't want to go with black cause I think the flat black is waaaaaay over done.

And I actually tried to take the pic and not have the top box be noticeable.... lol
