So last year, me and my friend took a late season ride in october up to route 17. Due to my stupidity, while we were setting up the camera on his bike, I put my bike on its kickstand on a slight slope. I gave it the shake test, and walked away.
The wind was mighty that day, and next thing I know, 5 minutes later my bike falls over, I know, i'm dumb. I took my frustration out on route 17 after that, and it helped.
All that needs to get painted is the tail, and the side fairing. The side fairing also has a crack in it from the previous owner tightening a bult to hard which would need to be fixed as well.
Now, I have a guy that does all my car work. I trust him, I don't go anywhere else. I was banking on him to do my bike for me, but he said he didn't want to....not going back there ever again, really bummed me out.
So my friend has a really good connection with a cheaper guy that does work down in wakefield who has given him some killer deals in the past. I said, what the hell, and drove my bike down there. He comes back asking 700 to paint to pieces that I would take off the bike for him and put back on. We said see ya later. He came back with 500, but I still think that is a bit too high, especially for a cheaper guy that doesn't do the best work. I'd pay 500 for my normal guy to do it, but this one.
So where do you guys suggest? Anyone here comfortable, I remember seeing a thread of painting full sets of race plastics for like $300, could be wrong though
If I can figure out how to upload a picture to NESR straight from my cell phone, i'll post up a pick of the side fairing, thanks guys!
