    Thats what i've been thinking. My compressors too small to run a paint gun well if i'm not mistaken. Good to hear the 2K holds up well to gas.

    Thanks for the tips man! Been wet sanding each layer of primer as i go. Good info on keeping brands the same ill make sure to keep that in mind. As of right now i'm thinking a dark foresty green on the tank. With the maroon seat it's going to be a kind of 'off christmas' color theme.

    Actually quick question for you guys, does anyone have a good carb recommendation for her? Been leaning towards Mikuni VM28's but honestly haven't seen much relating to that except that VM30's might be too big. Thanks for reading!

    Howdy! I picked up this old girl from craigslist for cheap recently. She's in pretty good shape just missing a few key parts (carbs, kickstart arm, wiring harness was pretty rough etc.). Figured i could use this forum to share my work and get some help seeing as i'm still new to working on...
