Yamaha R-1

Here is another R-1 I am building. This one is for a friend of mine. At first I painted and decaled the ferrings, and gave it to him to finish. After about a year it still is not done. It just so happened I needed to borrow his turn signals for a show they just recently had at one of our local malls. So, I am gonna finish it for him, since he has no time and patience to finish it. Here are some pictures of the parts I painted over a year ago.











More updates to follow........

Sorry, this build will have silver wheels. I just bought some Alclad II chrome, so I may try that route.

A small update. I decided to detail the rotors a bit, by drilling out the holes in them. Makes it look alot better. More realistic.

Damn, I tought to be the only one crazy enough to drill those brakes !

You prouve me wrong !

But you should paint them at first because the paint will pluged those tiny holes and you'll have to do it again (already tried)... but hey... here's a chance to prouve me wrong again !!

Lucky you.
