cheap CH guns are fine, you can get a half decent job out of most cheap hvlp if you have a good reliable air source

maybe just the picture but the lower fairing looks more chalky/flat than the tank, good job never the less

 

Good paint, nice colour

 

its definitely the picture , but the front fender needs a few more coats of clear it was the first piece i sprayed and i was kind of afraid of laying on too much clear and didnt get enough coats but , im going to fix that when i get a chance , riding season is coming to an end so i want to get the most out of my bike before cold weather hits . after that ill have plenty of time until spring to spray a few more coats of clear on the fender

 

wow looks stealthy.. i love it

 

Did you remember to paint the insides of the lower fairing?

I've always loved the matte stealthy look, but everyone is going to think your bike has been downed lol

 

nice

 

nice job! are you leaving it without decals?

 

The checkered flag hugger is sweet!

 

Looks good. I never really liked the r6 in that paint scheme. Nice color choice
