  1. I thought it was still called 2 pack on account it's a two part paint, one part paint/laquer one part hardener. I'm painting my tank myself, adding my own custom decals then a two part water clear laquer using ROJ Glisten. It takes nearly a week to cure so you need to have plenty of time but it is everything proof once done.
  2. If it looks cheap then you're doing it wrong. I know what you mean tho, sometimes I wonder "what were you thinking?", but each too their own. I like to see the individual work that goes into some bikes. If you get fun from buying a brand new bike, great. Anybody can go and buy a new bike, many people do, not everybody can build. I get value from creating something that looks good, rides nice and may be of interest to somebody else, being unique is great, whether it's cheap looking or not is a matter of perception. Here's my great value purchase I shall be working on over the next month or so. No doubt it's cheap looking to you, to me, it'll be a sweet ride. All the fun I'm having choosing parts, what exhaust? what colours? what bits to polish and what bits to chrome? single headlight or twin? USD's or stock? R1 Blue spots? LED lights?....... It's like being in a sweet shop
  3. Damn, I have the same problem. I went to the Police in the end, because of the data protection act they couldn't give me any details. The vjmc can only issue certificates on pre 1990 bikes, where do I go for post '90 I don't know what year my bike is. Is there someone who can track the bike from VIN, it's not a 17 digit VIN but it's a 90's bike. The DVLA reckon all post 1980 vehicles have a 17 digit VIN. Mine is YM *3GM-00????* does anybody know the year the FZR1000 EXUP 3GM model was released? Everywhere I've looked they say 1992 but it doesn't have USD's so I can only presume 1989.
