My next project
 

Here it is, a 1986 Yamaha SRX600. Due to a really bad re-paint by a guy I know, it is out to get new paint.And I am doing a few mods as well.
Here are the before pics. TAKE NOTE: The bike is just mocked up here,hence the spacing between tank and frame.
The scheme?? 02-03 Yamaha R1 blue.....with a vintage Yamaha racing stripe over fender,tank,tail section. In the one pic is a crude mock of the stripe.
Bike is being painted by JZRacecolor. I will post up finish pics when I get it back.

I looks pretty cool to me. How much did you pick that up for?

I actually owned this bike for 10-12 years now. My dad bought it new in 88 and I traded him one of my bikes for this one. I was in the process of redoing the whole bike to give back to him, when he passed away. I havent messed with it since. He would have hated the idea of it just sitting there, so out it comes, to be redone and ridden.

Nice cafe in the works, good luck with it.

Looks good! - Are you going to run the stripe all the way
across the tank, or stop it at the gas cap?
How about running it across the front fender as well?

Where is JZRaceColor located? I haven't heard their name before....

The stripe will be on the fender,all the way down the tank,and across the tail. The stripe is gonna be Gun metal/ brushed aluminum instead of black/ white. This will tie in the color of the frame and side covers.. JZRacecolors is out by Emmaus PA.

After she's all done make sure ya don't let anyone ride on a road trip.:whistle: :beat:

Especially my BRO-IN- LAW!!!!!! :ohmygod: :doh: :nod2:

Update::::
I got paint work back and did a quick mock up. The scheme changed slightly. The blue is lighter than R1 Blue and the stripe has a little deviation from an actual Yamaha racing stripe. What do you think? I will post more pics after I resize them.

looks good, but you're stil gay.
