Nice paint! I gotta ask: why didn't you remove the headbadge and the kickstand before you sprayed it? I mean, if you're going to go to all the trouble to do the stock-style color splits... just curious.

Thanks for feedback! I had trouble taking headbadge off because it had screws with no pattern. so just taped off. As for the kickstand wanted to paint to add a unique look! Still dont know if I like it?

Loks great!!!!! was wondering the same about the kickstand...but I feel ya! Getting those out stink!

It still looks really good. I drilled the rivets out on my old Schwinn badge, but I was building a klunker/bomber, so I wasn't concerned with putting the badge back on.
