Thanks TRM, I was thinking a matte Black I still have the vision of it all black with different blacks to make stuff stand out but it might have been a blessing though with the rain all morning as this is growing on me. When I paint aluminum or nice chrome I never scuff it clean with lacquer...

well this build is not what I had visioned for paint was thinking 2-3 variations of black to make things stand out but had no time so ended up in black primer and had no time to paint the moons correctly today with the weather so guess they will go naked for now but guess they do make other...

decided to leave a couple things shiny, I need to get things black that showed up in the box next.

well most of its in black primer as I had no time for paint but not the happiest they sent me the wrong activator but I did not have a choice as they were closed today to exchange so had to use what I had it dried way to fast spraying couldn't keep everything wet to flow good :mad: and it wasn't...

Bummer..... but will check my local listing for the rebirth of this great build

Thanks TRM for encouragement I knew I was going to be really close on paint but now need to be out of town Friday so that really killed it for paint still pushing ahead though.....

Thanks! I got the frame and fork in primer only thing left is the tank. I have decided I have only 2 options at this point buy some black primer scuff it and spray a coat of black primer with maybe some krylon black highpoints or pull out just not enough time to do actual paint correct the way I...

I picked up some hotrod satin black but don't think I will have time to use it and do it right so I may just have to shoot a coat of black primer on it crossing the finish line This box also showed up

got everything reblasted by all the welds and new tubes and a lot filled. Parts scattered everywhere everything is in primer except the frame/fork which are close get in primer today yet and tank which I laid a layer of glass on inside of the one half just way to thin to do anything else with...

bent these up yesterday they are 3 piece so not quite sitting even as just taped up about 27 1/2" wide and longer pull back :39: kinda like the early motorcycle bars flat with the slight down curve by grips, there's one more style I may try to bend up before I rip it apart.

Thanks KF.. skull eyes wont light up, had a bad fender rub on front fork was pushing fenders into tire so had to trim fenders up just enough to clear fork, had to grind non drive crank to clear lower stay, ground some on the back seat support, nuts welded in tubes to attached lights. times a...

I decided last year after bare bonnie with the custom stem I did every build I do will have one of some sort I must have ran thru 30 different ideas on this and did not like any of them, when I came across the skull cigarette lighter in the parts store for some reason it spoke to me soooo...

need to get little more done on the seat mounting also.

these little led's showed up today I was struggling what to do with the top bar but then found these, need to get a nut welded in the tube and will be good to go

Thanks! yep that will need to be determined yet there's 11/16" right now, pushing down its not that close but riding may be different with bumps? but will see, this thing will diff. not be a speed cruiser.

more done on stem from last post weld-grind-file-sand need to get front bar clamp level welded up then add the details:)

Thanks all.. it will be all black but not shiny it will be satin/semi gloss and maybe a few small shiny parts I mentioned in a previous post and KF yes it will be 2 toned black to make different things stand out, I am just on the fence patina or not but time is short. Thanks for all the comments...

I don't remember if I posted this on here think I did (without going back in my posts) my old Chevy I did back in the day that was also named Blackout that gave me the inspiration for this build. While this bike will be Black I have been debating patina Black or not :39: I am on the fence...

Thanks, I always try to think outside the box sometimes it works other times not so much.

finally have the frame/fenders welded/ground just need to do some filing in corners then slick it to smooth more, am behind and while I have scratched a couple things off my list already will be a couple more I think with time a tickin and need to mock back up because I forgot to weld on rear...
