Tomek hasn't answered which is interesting.  I wonder if he's trying to figure out why he didn't think of that or just trying to figure out a good response.

Actually I did. I modified my post. I was under impression anyone with iq above room temperature would get it. I was obviously wrong.

 

Dlaczego ty kubanska kurwo musisz byc takim pierdolonym chujem na kazdym kroku ? Wpierdalasz sie cienki palancie tam gdzie ciebie kurwa nikt nie zaprasza. 

Spierdalaj.

Bike is back together less parts of bodywork, but I'm going to throw some fading graphics. Took her literally around the block, everything is fine.

 

I just got back from Des Plaines Honda, sure enough, the recall on driveshaft was not done. To my utter surprise they offered to come and pick up the bike from my place next Saturday. Nice.

 

I'm going to convert existing red oem paint into the ugly HOK finish. Im pretty sure it will fade and starts to peel off in year or two. 

 

The existing red will serve as a base for House of Kolor custom kandy. First layer will be couple coats of mix of Ice Pearls, then 5-6 coats of apple and cherry kandy mix. Then clear coats, kolor sanding, yada, da. There will be fading graphic on side fairing, but I still have to figure out how tp get it done with the least effort. Probably I'll remove stickers after I spray sparkles, so fading graphics will area with no sparkle under the kandy. It won't be visible from the angle and weak light. This is what I have in my mind. lol.

Operational pause. Dealer picked up the bike on Saturday for driveshaft recall. They promised 11am - noon, and arrived 11:15 am. I'm still shocked.

57 F deg today, took her for longer 20 miles spin. It is all good. Power hits definitely harder courtesy of corrected cam timing and cleaned ports. Somewhat louder since exhaust opens sooner. 

New driveshaft virtually eliminated drivetrain lash. 

 

I`ve changed my mind on repainting the bike. I just could not bring myself to painting over perfectly good OEM plastics. Instead I`m getting chinesium unpainted plastics from ebay. 120 bucks for everything. LOL. It is gonna be more work though, chinesium primer won`t do, gotta start with proper two part epoxy primer.

Well, the project has not been abondoned. Finally have pulled my head of the ass and primed ebay plastics. I've used POS- according to one expert here- House of Kolor kp2cfa primer. Devillbiss finishline primer gun, 1.8 mm tip, 30 psi at the gun with trigger pulled.

 

It is gonna be two color paint job, silver will be replaced with HOK platinum pearl, red - custom kandy mix of oriental blue and teal over silver base. There will be graphics under candy.

 

3M has very nice line of sand papers- cubitron. It is the shit, lasts very long and cuts extremely well. Time saver, I've used 320+ grid for primer.

Those 4 large pieces (sides and tank covers) were laying as in  pictures. Small ones, I grab them by mounting tab, etc. and just spray like that. It was just primer, so some dust and  finger print on hidden area won't matter. 

It is gonna take more way careful arrangement to color and clear coat. 

I don't like to hang fairings because they won't stand still - the mixture of paint and air hits them pretty hard. When shooting pearls, candies and metallics proper 6 inches gun to the painted surface is absolutely critical.

I usually  run thick wire between tabs on the back side and use it as a grab handle.

 

Spray booth is not quite free. I have to deal now with this.😁

What do you prep your surface with before painting?  Yak jizz, or some unprofessional bullshit like acetone.

 

Let`s assume you are not trolling,

320 grid and then soap and water. I don`t like to use any chemicals for final wash for plastics.

I feel I don`t have to mention that for metal surfaces I strongly recommend acetone.

Try that aforementioned 3M sand paper, it is awesome.
