MaadDaawg 10-10-2011 06:54 AM

when i was a kid, my dad was a cop. That's why I grew up to be such a hellraiser :muaha: He was chasing some kid on a bike one night when the guy lost control of the bike and slid under a moving cement truck :shithappens:"

According to my dad, the guys head went partially under the rear wheel of the truck and his head popped open sending his brain flying across the street to the curb :howfuckingcoolisthat:

He was going to take me to the police station and show me the pics, but mom wouldn't let him :greenwtf:

<true story>

Enjoy your rides Bros :D

I saw that happen once except the guy flew by me at like a 100+ and forgot to turn, his head slapped the center cement divider and his brain popped out of a perfect hole in his helmet and slid a good long way down the freeway, it was steaming in the night. :thumbdown:

Is that from the surface not being smooth?

I was told after the fact that you need to wait a minimum of two days after spraying clear before applying decals...they said out-gassing of the clear curing caused this.

On the upside I may be able to salvage this. Took a soft cloth saturated with lacquer thinner and within three minutes had all the decals cleanly off.

Another attempt...this time around I added some Fire Red flake over the black base coat. I will let this cure for two days before re-applying the tank decal and following coats of clear. (Crosses fingers...)

Clean, clean, clean except for one thing. The yellow/orange plug wires seem out of place. I would give you suggestions but I'm sure you'll figure it out ;)

Clean and beautiful ride my friend!
