looks good!  I really like the silver fins on the engine!  When I repainted my engine I cleaned the fins off just like that.

yeah my avatar is my work in progress.  I've finished some painting since that pic was taken and added a rear solo seat I made from fiberglass.  Its really turning into what I wanted the bike to look like!

To get the chain guard off you only need to remove the two allen bolts on the heel guard, not the entire rear-set plate.

I'm with Bluesmudge on this, you simply need to remove the three allen bolts on the heel guard, no need to remove the whole footpeg set :dunno_black:
Done it a few times (everytime I clean & lube my chain).
BTW nice yellow, I like it :thumb:

I agree.  Seems to me like 6 in one hand, 1/2 dozen in the other.

Just did this today, sprayed the bottom frame black, think it makes the silver stand out but i cant decide wether or not to get rid of the silver altogether???

I personally like the entire frame blacked out, seems half done to me.
