What up bro. I didn't realize you were the same guy from the R1 forum. I'm still in Ct. Getting ready to move the family down to the 757. How did he like his new chain and sprockets? Why are you selling your bike? Can't remember if I've asked that on the other forum.

Oh ok. He said he likes it a lot. I've lived a couple of houses down from him for over a year and just realized he was on the forums. I am selling because I want a 04-06 R1 or a 06+ R6 for the track.

04-06 R1. Smart man. So as not to completely jack this thread, do you know anyone that does paint work?

The only problem that he had was the rattle can paint that i used was lifting when he was spraying. So I had to buy stripper and more sand paper to get the job done. Materials very depending on what you want done. Paint can run from 60 up to a 100 for the ok stuff. Then sand paper and things like that. It took him 2 days to do mine cause we ran into the problem with the spray paint that i used. And the 300 is if he doesnt have to do major repairs to the plastics. I can't imagine it taking but a day or 2 and running about 400 total cost.

That doesn't sound bad at all. Is that including prep work? When u say spray paint peeled up do mean u didn't sand and prime prior to him shooting it?

Miller Enterprises, they do awesome work. That's where Ish works.
The owner rides with us and is also another track rider and a great guy.
He did my race plastics.

BTW, when are you planning on doing a track day. I'm going to have to miss the 13th of Sept. and try to get in one at Summit or NJMP late Sept. and a VIR date in Oct.

Have heard he does good work.. never seen it though...

Yes... it includes prep work.. but as long as its like simple sanding... If there is alot of damage that needs to be repaired... it will be extra.

It was something about the spray paint that I used... was Enamel or something.. and when he sprayed the automotive over it... it wrinkled and lifted. So... it was my fault... but my brother fixed it up for me.
