Wow, what a paint job

This guy looks like he's good:

seattle.craigslist.org/see/mcy/390320675.html


But I gotta admit, I paid $50 for my recent acquisition and I ride every day.

I like shiny, don't get me wrong (oh, do I like shiny), but there's the cheap part of me that kinda likes saying that I got my bike for $50, recovered the seat for $7.00 worth of foam and vinyl and have $15 worth of paint and sandpaper invested to get where I am....

Still, if you're in the Seattle area and looking, this guys photos are pretty impressive.

He does do nice work. I still could not own a motorcycle with any of those paint jobs on it though, so I'll keep my stand on repaints. I'll assume the CBR1000RR is never going to have the Honda graphics on it again? If this is the case, I'd have left it scratched up.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.
