Gday

First post guna make it a good one. I ride around on a really ratty looking 500F (progressine springs up front , GSX750F rear shock and cheapie CF muffler) and being a bike spray painter ive been putting of doing my own bike for a while. Now thanks to my mate on his zx2r who took up stargazing mid run on our beloved Wisemans ferry road  and high sided into me at over about a $1,20 nearly killing himself and more importantly me in the process i finally have a good excuse to finally cleaning up my bike. Pics just after i lowsided after the crash.




sticker on the windscreen say i do my own stunts very appropriate

So since i do alot of work on gs500's im pretty tired of the stock scheme. I looked around and couldnt find any custom ones i like either, motoGP Suzuki is crap aswell. Then i found a beauty.



bit too much work to do that exactly but i can do a knock of in a day or two



Out comes the sand paper and some white base coat.



things start taking shape



dig through the harddrive and pull out some decals and draw some new ones
