Default Project "FireCrotch" Completed

...Finally!

Some of you may remeber my thread from about six months back of my buddies custom painted Yamaha R1

https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...t=#post6975361

Well, he finally completed the project last week and we went and did a nice photoshoot on Sunday.

Here are just a few pics for now, and I'll have more to post up once I get everything finished, but work has been crazy.

nice, a friend of mine here did the same thing, i'm not sure of the bike, but it was painted black with true fire, but it has some kind of skull-ism theme on the front in the flames.

these kinda paint jobs look even better in person.

HA! That's funny that you mention it. After the bike was finished, another friend and I were joking around and told my fried that we were going to pull out a fire extinguisher and blast his *** while he was parked at a red light!...We decided against that little prank...

But a few days after he was finished, I was at a light in my work van and he was on his bike at another light on an adjacent street. I rolled my window down and just started yelling as loud as I could:

"THAT GUYS ON FIRE!!! HIS BIKES ON FIRE!!! CALL 911!!!"

It was great! There were people everywhere and everyone just started starring...

Thanks for the compliments guys. I know that my friend had a lot of hard work and time in this bike. He bought a wrecked bike, pulled it completely apart, fixed everything, painted it, and put it all back together completely by himself. This project means quite a bit to him.
