Paintwork

Spent the weekend painting my frame, hard tail & fender.  Did it the old school way:

- Hit it with a grinder first and a steel brush

- Etch primer

- Satin black to finish

Came up great.

Hard Tail Mock-Up

My Hammer-In-Hand Straight Back Bolt On Hardtail arrived today and here is a rough mock-up of it.

Just need to get the right bolts for it now!  Yes I know the axle plates look kinda chunky, however I have a plan on how to hide these a bit...with 1 3/4" Fishtail Upsweep Drag Pipes on one side and a Nash Leather Bag on the other.
