There is no way it will be ready by friday. I have alot of work left to do on it. I expect the clear coating to take while in itself. I want to put as many coats of clear on it as I can to protect the maps. and secondly I am just a bit big for this bike. I have only ridden it a handful of times and the back axle is already showing signs of abuse.


Which is why i ride such a big orange bike.

I can't wait to see thw finished product.


The autocorrect on my phone wanted "product" to be "Rosicrucianism." I don't even know what that is.
