View attachment 13618 View attachment 13619 Barbazoo is my import M400 Monster He needed a complete strip the yellow paint has a tiny bit of silver metal flake in it. you only notice it when it right out In the sun I really like him black with yellow paint. The photos of him in yellow with standard cans is how it arrived. The satin black paint with yellow wheels frame is the finished article . Needs more lowering , good set of tyres and possible seat change . Trying to find nice belt covers!!
And that's how it should be, as long as you like it is all that matters...don't worry about the haters out there!
I don't Most folks just want to chat about him or stroke him as it looks like fur. He's a talking point alright. It does make me chuckle when people say must cost a fortune!!!! No ...., not for bling but if he goes wrong bad yes
But that's what makes the world go round if we all liked the same it would be dull dull dull!! I don't give a toss if people hate my glittery bike ... It's mostly not to most people's taste . Most of my bikes have been Matt black ( then I had vile Blue thing I got shot of ) Then Orange and black which I love. When I got Hector I needed a little rainbow to cheer me up ... So when the sun shines and his paint dazzles it cheers me up.
