It's exhausted ......... a bit of gold an metallic blue (it's a lot darker than in the photos) dry brushed on the headers. Job done............... Just some details, mirrors and indicators on the fairing and I'm done.

Thanks Monica....... The only decals on this bike are the two small Yoshi symbols each side old the fairing, one on the top of the tail, a couple of notices on the frame and that's it. The red and grey are all brush painted.

Wow....brilliant Peter..what do you use for the metallic on the frame?
Can't get mine to look that good.
