Lmao.. Haven't you ever heard that expression south of the border?

But yah I hope it holds together, I don't have the cash to start from scratch.

So I finally finished painting everything on here today..

What do you all think?? Is the gold to much??

 

[fayt926]

looks good man!!

 

[Gen1Pat]

No way man! The gold looks great! It goes well with it because of the rims and the rear shock ressie.

That looks amazing! The gold accents are really nice. Did you straighten out your swinger?

Thanx for the comments guys.. I just thought the gold might have been to much?

And yah 1999, I kinda got it.. I used a come along, and the frame of my truck as a brace. Hooked onto the axle, and gave it a tug. It moved about a 1/2" inch!!
My neighbor said I had my chain to tight, and is most likely what caused that happened? I'm just gonna have to be nice to it till I can upgrade.

The gold looks sick on that man! Good to here your swingers back on line!

 

[YAMAHAULER]

Lmao..
The seat isn't real croc skin, it's just vinyl.
I bought it on ebay about 3 years ago for $70. (That was the whole seat, not just the cover). The guy told me his wife made the cover.. It's a one off.

Do you guys think I should paint my front motor mounts gold to?

 

[Mathius]

Still look'n for some advice on what to paint gold on this beast.. It's wicked nice outside, and I'm in a paint'n kinda mood.

 

[1999yamahawarrior]

I think you should Paint the front motor mounts gold, it would look good

 

[Mathius]

Done!! lol

 

[1999yamahawarrior]

Nice, can't wait to see some pics of the mounts, here's an idea, paint your a arms gold.

 

[duneracerweston]

PAINT THE FRONT SHOCKS!! they can be dis assembled (spring off the body) clean em and paint em!

 

[Mathius]

Nice, can't wait to see some pics of the mounts, here's an idea, paint your a arms gold.

I thought about that.. I was gonna do the arms, and swinger gold to. But I don't wanna tear it all apart again.. lol

I'm mocking up my headlight mount, and drinking beer right now. :tup:

It's just cardboard, but thats where it's gonna be.

I'm getting new shocks right away, so I'm not really worried about them right now.

 

[1999yamahawarrior]

Drinking beer and working on the warrior. Sounds good

 

[Gen1Pat]

Arms gold is too much. Would take away from the bike and make it gawdy, imo. When I get home I'll post pics of my project from today. I think everyone will be impressed.
