    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Not very many people, even a lot of pros don't paint the underside of a gas tank. I've never understood that. Well done.

Thanks man. I rattle can'd the base color. But I cleared it with 5 coats of catalyzed clear and one of my hvlp's. Base coat doesn't matter and doesn't need to be shiny so just laying the metallic out correctly is all that matters.

I started painting in a hotrod shop, and currently am a house painter for over 20 years. I had light rust underneath and wanted to correct and seal that. The factory didn't worry about painting the underside very well either

I'm going to run these gold badges. Should look nice with the gold chain, brass leather accents. Instead of the right side cover I'm going to make a custom fit leather messenger pouch
 
I got her up and running this week. The idle is good. But no power at half throttle or above. I ordered new mains. 4-7 sizes up
