Delboy's Garage, Fighter Build

[@JoshuaRoberts-kq9cs]

Evening Del I have just up graded the suspension on my t120 Bonneville.I put on yss piggy back shocks and progressive rate springs in the front I am 108 kilos ridding weight so the supplier fitted the correct rate springs on the rear before shipping them to me The transformation to the bike since then and the yss steering damper i fitted is bloody amazing All up it cost 2150 dollars Money well spent Have a great evening Del and Penny

[@Moonfleet41]

Thank for sharing that buddy.. it's great to hear you have it all set up right.. as you said, it's money well spent when it makes your bike perfect for your use.. Take care and enjoy the miles.. D&Pxx

[@sabamacx]

Deeply enjoyable and satisfying episode. Thank you for filming and sharing.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thank you my friend, my sterling camera girl makes me look good... the videos wouldn't be what they are without her! Thank you for your kind words...

[@ClassicTrialsChannel]

Have had a Nitron shock on my Kawasaki ZR7 for the last 4 years, its been great, it transformed the ride quality, i also got the hydraulic preload adjuster, as it was half price at the time.

[@Moonfleet41]

Nice one buddy, it's great to get the feedback from those who've tried one... Cheers!

[@brentniederhauser6163]

your enthusiasm for this project coming to an end is exciting to watch. i'm ready to start my project we discussed earlier but it's in the single digits here in the midwest USA. keep inspiring us all!

[@Moonfleet41]

Thank you Brent, it's a priviledge to be an inspiration, am just building my bike and getting on with it, it's an honour to know you enjoy it... lots more to come, good luck with yours, lets all hope it warms up soon !

[@SteveCardiff]

Hey Del. Yep, Wemoto are great. I ordered my Nitron from them for my Blackbird but went for a remote preload adjuster for when her indoors gets on the back. Crazy thing is, Wemoto were cheaper than Nitron themselves. I even phoned Nitron to see if they would price match Wemoto so I could deal with them directly for my shock, but they couldn't!. I had a pre-conceived idea that Wemoto just had a few on the shelf and that they'd send one that kinda suited your weight and I understandably wanted it to be spot on for me. I can now say that when you order your shock from Wemoto they then order it through Nitron so you know the shock is tailor made for you and you riding style etc. Spoke to the guys at Nitron on the phone a few times too and they're a great bunch to deal with. As for the shock Del, it is simply amazing. Completely transformed my Blackbird with the help of a set of fork internals from Daugherty Motorsport in Murica. Just one question though. Are you now thinking you should have ordered a black spring, or are you happy with your choice??

[@Moonfleet41]

Hey Mogs, great to hear that wonderful feedback about Nitron mate, as I've said many times in the comments here, we're hearing over and over from owners of top class sportsbikes that they are vastly improving the handling no end... GSXR1100, a FZ1, ZX14 and now your Blackbird... these are no nonsense super bikes and come with good suspension from the factory, so it's a pure testimony from multiple feedbacks that they're an excellent product... I bought mine set up for an 89kg rider but I'm only 75kgs, so it's gonna be a little stiffer than I need, I'll run it on the lightest damping and zero pre-load and see how it feels... have also jacked the back up 1" so it's gonna tip in a lot quicker as well... should be a right little minx to ride lol... Thanks again buddy, really appreciate your feedback..... and I quite like the turquoise spring, may factor in some of that colour on the paintwork , who knows!!

[@AoP893]

Loving that nitron. Can you do a vid of a basic setup of that nitron when it comes to it? Many youtube vids on suspension but you have a knack for explaining things :)

[@Moonfleet41]

You know what?? I will indeed mate, I am by no means any form of expert on suspension, but it's always important to set your suspension with the right sag at least, so I'll cover that for sure, along with the forks once it's all back together - thanks for the nudge mate...

[@hdrk59]

Great as always...really enjoyed it and fantastic camera work. Thank you for sharing.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks for your kind words - glad you enjoy the camera work, it's much appreciated, PPx

[@kevinharhat2687]

Hi del penny bike looking good can't believe it's been 2 years doesn't seem that long with all the other videos in-between gotta say thank you to you and penny for all your hard work cheers kev

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Kev, can't believe it myself, 2yrs don't seem like a day! And I have to also say, thank you so much for your support, and you know what I mean cos I read everything that gets written on the net about us, and your kind words mean everything my friend... thank you for your loyal support, drop us a line any time, please keep in touch, D&Px

[@steven8-stones719]

Aaah man! I’ve njoyed that vid so much!!! Love those mounting moments! Can’t wait for it!!

[@chriscoteaz]

It's like watching a ballet. Well done.

[@domastomkus]

Hi DellBoy. Was watching your videos since i bought my first bike witch was 2012 you helped me many times and teach me a lot of tricks.. one thing i picked up from this video that you have used wire brush to clean a bolt and as much i remember you were explaining in one of your previous videos (long time ago) that cleaning a bolt with wire brush is no good becouse it will take protective coating away.. maybe i mistaken. Anyhow great video cant wait to see street fighter done.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi buddy, yes indeed, that is quite right, if you have zinc plated bolts, then a wire mop will remove that plating... but these bolts are stainless steel, so can be cleaned with a wire mop to bring them back to a bright, shiney finish... good to hear from you again, take care and thanks for watching...

[@dhchamp157]

Great choice with the nitron shock.Quality gear..I use one on my zzr1400,totally improved the way the bike rides.Fantastic channel.keep up the good work👍All the best Joe.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Joe, appreciate that feedback, I've never used a Nitron before, if a Nitron can improve the handling of a ZX14 then they must be top kit... looking forward to riding it !

[@ellwrox]

Oh yeah! its coming along now Del. Love the look of that shock.

[@mikearmstrong2488]

swing arm looks great - Nitron shock as well, got one on each of my bikes I noticed the biggest benefit on my 1200 bandit K6 as I can push it more now without the old pogo effect that the old shock had

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks great feedback Mike, I'm gonna really interested to see how it performs myself as not had one before on a bike... cheers!

[@allenhuling598]

Joy to watch your skill-in-craft as you just 'move' through this reassembly! Really lookin good....anticipating the final product!

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Allen, thank you my friend... assembly is always pretty simple, it's fabrication that's challenging, but it is rewarding, specially when everything is clean and shiney lol !

[@koromuri97]

I was kind of sceptical of your use of the spray can, but wow, the frame and swinging arm look awesome. Enjoying the build, excellent work from you both.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Mark, that's very kind... appreciate your support... D&Px

[@leegingerninja]

Love seeing the bike really come together and take shape 👌

[@john.m.7980]

Hi Del / Penny, apart from the final paint, thinking about what's been done, this bike is going to look pretty special, still cant believe how well the rattle can painted areas are. 👍it's going to be VERY worth while for you.

[@stevieu83]

Looks amazing Del! It's a good feeling when everything is fresh and squeaky clean isn't it? I look forward to seeing it with the wheels back on 😊

[@Moonfleet41]

Sure thing mate, totally agree, the wheels are gonna look stunning and really set it off... decided to do it this way (leaving the paint work till last) so we know what the frame and wheels look like with everything done, then the paintwork will be easier to design...

[@brno221973]

I just love reassembly, makes all the hard prep work worth while. Looking sweet mate👍

[@jamesweber4938]

Nice job. Best part of the project coming up for you. The finished product is in sight.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks mate, getting there slowly, but trying not to count me chickens, as every time you look up there's another job to do lol !

[@Grandcentralgoods]

Love watching your progress on this beast!

[@paulharast1958]

the paint job came out beautiful,,,, the bike is looking more awesome....You and Penny Have a Wonderful Week and Ride Safely,,,God bless

[@Moonfleet41]

Thank you Paul, you too my friend, and thank you for your very kind words, always appreciated, D&Px

[@gcrockford8191]

I enjoyed watching this one, had substance, is the best way to describe it.

[@ndg6600]

Really excited for you Del, its proper coming together nice mate, video awesome as ever..

[@arthurconrod9825]

Nice finish on the frame, It looks great.

[@banditBrian]

when i got the band 1200 it had a nitron shock on it too. looks exact same as yours nice feel to it alright ,... good jobs guys as usual

[@Moonfleet41]

Nice one Brian, I've never used one before, it's great to get the good feedback about them !

[@Lostinthesupermarket11]

The swing arm looks great in the bike Del. I couldn't believe how much it cost to refurbish a shock when mine went on my old GSX600F. I almost bought an upgrade but luckily in the end I went for the cheapest option of a salvage shock from the states as the bike was written off a month later buy a courtesy car driver.

[@Moonfleet41]

Yeah, it is a lot of money aye mate... but I guess it'a a labour process on a product that was initially mass produced... so it adds up aye?! Sorry to hear about the write off, hope you weren't hurt.... D&Px

[@Lostinthesupermarket11]

I wasn't hurt and to be honest the bike still rode it was mostly fairing damage and engine cases visible damage. It quickly adds up though especially when the bikes only worth £1000 and insurers use factory parts.

[@DJShadow1966]

Always look forward to my Wednesday evening fix of DBG, makes a shite day at work more worth it somehow. Coming along nicely fella, almost there and I for one reckon the end result will be well worth waiting for! Keep at it, not long now! RSMF's, shiny side up, always.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Ian, you're very kind mate, still may be a little while off yet, but we're getting there slowly but surely... thanks for watching for watching mate! D&Px

[@jaimielibbi1]

Mate it's all coming together. Andys obsessions what a muppet. Can't wait to see what Mackie comes up with, I guess more rum, lol

[@Moonfleet41]

Good to hear from you mate - the jury is still out on the paint, as too many options to make a choice at the moment ! And yep, pay no attention to the Muppet Show mate, guess it's panto season again....

[@kodycox9733]

Your videos are the highlight of my day mate keep it up del

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Kody !

[@chillax498]

its coming on del, looking good mate👏

[@tyson1ize]

you're a lovely bloke Del, keep up the good work mate!! totally enjoy watching your vids and learning heaps also..well done mate!

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks buddy, you're very kind....

[@tyson1ize]

you are more than welcome, one reason I commented was that I have seen a little bit of the saga with the other mechanic ( not mentioning any names ) and I feel he is a very angry man and very jealous of you, jumping at any opportunity to put you down..sad that there are haters like him around. so I thought I might just show you my appreciation..hope that's ok ??

[@SuperWimpole]

Love it.... as always. Keep 'em coming mate.

[@jonboy-kb1jj]

Nicely done Del, pleasure to watch. Look forward to your next vid mate.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Jonboy, gonna strip the front off for the next one!

[@rsbharley4766]

Nice job Del, it's looking good mate. Penny and you have a great week, Cheers

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks buddy, have a great week yourself... we'll 'see ya' Saturday lol ! D&Px

[@chrisrag1346]

I Say..... How spiffingly marvellous..... One really is coming along in leaps and bounds now ;) This is all looking pretty good, by what i can see, that paint as come out really nice Del . job well done Sir................. Can't wait to see this bike finished. it gone be so cool it will be ice cold . woh...... I've resisted to say the pun about shock absorber .............. that was hard work lol

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate, thanks for resisting that, I though I'd get a few and I did lol...

[@raytokens2291]

That is looking fresh bruv. I wish my fz6 could look all nice and shiny. I wish I had the skills to throw paint but I am cheap and my garage still isn't fixed. Broken door broken door frame and cracked asbestos roof alright for the summers crap for this time of year. I'm doing all my repairs in my garden which is a communal garden so not even any privacy. Ride safe bruvva and can't wait till it's all done

[@Moonfleet41]

Cheers Ray, that's very kind... been where you are mate, had to work on bikes in the street under a streetlight, it ain't ideal is it?? See you in a couple of weeks - ride safe mate...

[@KayzahGB]

Mate, just putting it out there. Have you considered making everything black to match the frame? The tank, under section and the rear, change to black. This will give an overall meaner look to it, just personal preference. That satin black just looks amazing. If that was covered all over, black on black would look stunning.

[@Moonfleet41]

Have considered that mate, but it's quite difficult to pull off triple black, as it's usually called, it can end up looking like a rat bike specially when it's dirty... but it can be done if you use a few subtle extras, like some silver brushed stainless, and carbon accents, plus am pretty keen to , maybe, include some green and not the classic '9 parts yellow/1 part blue' that we all love, but the more dark metallic green they use... don't know yet mate, it's a fair way off still !

[@KayzahGB]

Yeah I think triple black would be pretty easy to pull off on that bike. Just an idea, glad you considered it haha!

[@stephenmitchell8324]

Hi Del/Penny its coming together nicely can't wait to see the fabrication, good camera work penny as always

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Stephen, really appreciate your kind support - I do my best ha ha ! PPx

[@ronalmon3319]

Good job brother...looks great and can’t wait to see more...👍

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Ron, hope you're all keeping well !

[@Arijit_VU3ICT]

Remarkable episode... Thanks del... with love From India

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Arijit, good to hear from you my friend, hope life is good where you are, it's wonderful to hear from you all the way from beautiful India...take care and ride safe on those crazy roads over there!

[@MrAlmar07]

Morning D&P, in the words of today's young uns, that looks 'Gorg'. Can see it all coming together now. Awrabest to you both from me & Arch, Al. 😉

[@Moonfleet41]

Ayup mate, always good to hear from you both, having fun with the build now, keep in touch both, and have a great week, take care, D&Px

[@Cueballproductions1149]

Looking good del keep up the good work

[@8ball903]

Nice , finally the end is in sight 👊😎

[@Moonfleet41]

I try not to say that lol, cos every time I do, I find another 5 jobs lol !

[@leoncleary9696]

The speed of ya fella lol. Wish I could chase out the paint that quick. BTW. Good choice on the black brother.!

[@Ratqueenbikes]

That's a beautiful shock. Good call buying new. Enjoyed watching and great work as always hun x

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks RatCuz, it just ended up so expensive to get the original one re-furbished, it seemed worth up-grading - and still miss building a rat so think it will be next time round for sure ! Have a great weekend, D&Px

[@ownyourworld]

Awesome vid as usual 👍🏻 glad you jacked it up just like my old bandit !

[@Moonfleet41]

It's the law buddy, you know it... every fighter has to have it's arse in the air, it's gonna make it handle like a schizophenic springbok, but that's how they shouldn't be isn't it ?!

[@geoffozevans4500]

P. Coming along nicely, I would have forgotten where all the bits go by now lol 👍😎

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Geoff, that's always the danger... if you're ever worried, then a fistful of freezer bags and post it notes inside them works a treat !

[@colinsharp1314]

Looking really cool

[@Aemobileonline]

I love your build! You guys are doing an awesome job! I am constantly checking to see if you've put up any videos.. :) -Austin

[@Moonfleet41]

Hey Austin, if you click on the 'bell' icon next to the subscribe button and you'll get a notifiction to your email every time we upload a video... that's if you haven't already! Thanks for your kind words mate...

[@paulgrech8428]

Turning out a pretty neat, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Paul, little by little mate...

[@KillswitchBB]

Although this is some thing i would love to do, but can't ( space , money & imagination ) ,, totally loving watching you do it :) awesome stuff Del & penny ..

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks mate, that's very kind... glad to know you enjoy, they take a long time to film and edit, but knowing you enjoy them, makes it all worthwhile - thank you , D&Px

[@garya3056]

You clearly enjoyed yourself doing this, Del! And I did watching it! Nicely done... regards from Manly Beach down under... 80 degrees f here and me without a bike. DOH!

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi buddy, jealous of you already.. .not only do you live in a beautiful place, but now you visit beautiful places too! I have a cousin who lives in Manly, enjoy yourself and have a great time mate...

[@garya3056]

Moonfleet41 just work, my friend... no time for fun. Your cousin is quite lucky!

[@bigfatpear]

looking real nice.

[@martincarey8620]

(P) After much slowness, a sudden surge of huge progress!! This is really coming together now Del, and ad lightening speed!!! Well done :-)

[@Moonfleet41]

Cheers buddy, projects tend to go in fits and starts, suddenly you're hammering through it, then it all grinds to a halt again... lol Soon be done....

[@01Bellend]

Lovely job

[@daisukeikeda4491]

Amazing job there Del and Pen! Can’t imagine taking all of those shots was easy and the editing must’ve been mega intensive. I’m going to ask a daft question now Del, but how to you remember where every nut and bolt goes and in which order to reassemble? I always keep nuts and bolts in numbered little tubs and always fasten the nuts to their corresponding bolt but this video blew my mind. I’m sure it must come down to experience and skill level! Cracking vid as always, many thanks. Take care, Dai

[@Moonfleet41]

Hey brother, good to hear from you... and I don't know about skill, but certainly experience, you get used to where the bolts go, and would you believe, oddly enough, most fasteners are actually different to each other... so often only fit in one place! But the good old freezer bag and post-it notes method has served me well over the years... especially if it's gonna be apart for a long time for an on-going project ... and hey, I'd swop you any day for those awesome knife skills of yours! Chat soon, soon be Spring aye buddy, D&Px

[@CookingwithChefDai]

ahhh, I see. Thanks Del. More recently, I've been pushing my limits on what tasks I undertake on my bike but ,like I said before, the enormity (in my mind anyway) of what you undertook in this video absolutely blows my mind. But who know, perhaps theres a bike build hidden in me somewhere aye?!? Likewise mate, I'd take your mechanical engineering skills over my knife skills any day of the week..... Speak soon D and P..........

[@bobbymccarthy9281]

Nice work del another great vid

[@JonnyBgood41]

The Fighter's coming along nice Del. What about doing something with a clock in the background using a rear sprocket to make it more suit the new garage?

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate, I do plan to make some biker related 'stuff', I've got some sprockets, some old discs and all sorts, so who knows - thanks mate, appreciate the nudge!

[@JonnyBgood41]

I look forward to any future projects that you do Del..Their always interesting and great viewing.

[@bikerdad1479]

Del,im having to get a newish bike what are your thought on a Triumph Trophy 1200 ie:- anything bad in the Triumph world(only had kwacks suzukis and honda in 35ish years of riding) thanks mate

[@d.fresh.750]

(P) Great video...that satin black tough paint is looking amazing! New shock fits in quite well too. The maintenance work is moving right along...can't wait to see the new tires mounted and wheels back on!

[@Moonfleet41]

Cheers Doug, tyres are booked for Monday, and then it's wheel bearings, fit discs and fit wheels! Gotta paint the front first, so stripping the forks out tomorrow so I can get to it ...! All the best, D&Px

[@ukko2k]

Hi Del/Penny - looking good...... av fun keep safe - Nige

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Iain, really enjoying it!

[@gerardoantonio9001]

Excelent job!!!

[@petervaughan4591]

Wicked, sooo close now! Please change your mind and put a new can on it.👍🏻

[@Moonfleet41]

You know what, I love that little can, can't imagine a big ugly universal race can, but was thinking, maybe, about re-routing the link pipe, somehow up under the seat, not sure I wanna extend the build another two months... maybe it will be something I can do in the future, once it's on the road!

[@DevinJuularValentine]

The frame all unified looks tidy indeed. I keep meaning to ask, how have you built up your nuts, bolts and fastener inventory? I've tried looking all over the shop but the daunting thing is that there are so many sizes, thread counts, lengths, and nowhere sells a simple bumper pack as far as I have seen. What are the sort of must-haves to keep in stock in a garage? I have a little 50 to restore but pricing up the bolts directly came to over £100 - some were definitely overpriced.

[@Moonfleet41]

You could try Pro-Bolt kits buddy, I think they do tubs of general fasteners, if you're going for metric, I generally work on M6, M8, and M10 but 6 & 8 are the most common on a bike, then a range of lengths, I usually go for a quantity of 16mm, 20mm, 25mm , then nuts to match, both regular and nylock, plus washers - the initial set up did cost me over £100, but it's the purchase that keeps giving, I keep them in the size matched drawers and then when you get down to a dozen, I just buy a pack of 25 of that size, which is way cheaper as you're only replacing the ones you need - but like all things, the initial set up is the main cost... good luck with your build!

[@DevinJuularValentine]

Moonfleet41 It would be a relief just to have this stuff on hand for when I fling a nut into the black void of the frame (or down a drain)! And when I strip a bolt. Hah! I will look into the Pro Bolt kits :)

[@Rob.1340]

nicely done.set up will improve handling for the better.looks great too. that shock tools ace.all the best.

[@Moonfleet41]

Cheers Rob, great looking shock aye, and from what i hear from those who have one, they really upgrade the handling too..

[@twi5t3d7340]

As usual good work,keep it up

[@apf14378]

Just in case you forgot, torque the nut! XD (Edit: you did it in this same video, well done ;D) Btw I saw some sock full maintenance-refurbish videos and its a very technical job, I'd say it would be as difficult as funny. Please consider doing a video on that.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate, I can't re-build the factory shock as it's a specialist job because it's a gas charged shock, and requires specialised equipment, would cost a lot to have it re-built and re-furbished, almost as much as a new one, which is a better quality shock...

[@suzuki750stu]

Looks cool buddy, shock looks a treat, hi to Pen, regards Stu

[@Moonfleet41]

Ayup Stu, thanks mate - ripping through it now - PP says 'Hi' !

[@janwoodworth5072]

Hiya mike here need some advice about me horn replacement ;-). dont want it at the front of the bike want it hidden out of sight. on me 600 bandit. no sleep thinking about it ;-). can you help bro cheers i like cafe racer nice job bro.

[@tinks43]

(P) Looking slick, well done guys! See you in a couple of weeks 😀

[@Moonfleet41]

Sure thing mate, we've booked the weather to be 72 and sunny !

[@matthewS993]

Looks ace, you're right about the shock, all the time and effort to get it refreshed wouldn't outweigh a direct replacement such as hagon etc. Better design and adjustments with a seriously good look. I was looking for an oil filler cap for my zx7r, seemed very difficult to find, even on ebay the few on there were over £20, discovered a website www.kawasakioriginalparts.com which is a UK based Kawasaki dealer which still has oem new parts for the ZX7R, well worth a look as it includes the parts diagrams, I sourced a cap for £4 on there instead of the obsurd used prices.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks buddy, really appreciate that link, have saved that for future reference, I guarantee I'll need it at some point - cheers!

[@marksainsbury4109]

Nitron on my slabby , best £400 odd i spent .

[@Moonfleet41]

Nice one mate, I've never used one yet, so that's great feedback buddy - cheers !

[@kevinharhat2687]

Del have you ever used atf and acetone mix as a penetrating fluid my swing arm bolt would not move siezed solid in spacer tube hammering with lump hammer was just mushrooming end not bothered about it got another to replace it sealed one end up with sealant layed frame on its side poured it in left it a week and out it came oh don't forget to shake the bottle before use as it does separate if left stood for a period of time😉

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Kevin, I haven't used it myself mate, but have heard about it... it seems to work very well by all accounts, as you found! I've often believed that whay makes a good mechanic is not paper qualificiations and technical know-how, but it's having the ingenuity and initiative to adapt to, imperovise and to overcome problems, don't ya think?

[@kevinharhat2687]

Yes that is very true I don't have a garage a 6x4 shed on back yard that has a good home made bench. a vice a pillar drill like the old one you had a 20 litre compressor and a lot of inexpensive spanners sockets screw drivers and oh lol a pair of pink axle stands and tips from you I used the plastic pipe and exhaust clamps tip to successfully put seals in forks and wheel bearings head Stock bearings all from wemoto at a good price fast delivery and just done swing arm bearings rattle can spraying and the list goes on and on and there's nothing I can't do with a bit inventiveness and watching your videos job done saved me a small fortune thanks 👍

[@shaunpb599]

The nitron shock costs £462 for the zx7r.,, I know because I bought one 😃

[@toris680]

Dear friend, I am amazed by your work, I continue to tell you recently, but I have decided, you are going to be my mechanic. I would like to see how my machine works after you put it on. Dreaming is free for my. Greeting my master.

[@demoncleanersmith9403]

No more dead badgers plz =)

[@pauldavies5199]

Looking rather fine there Del. I bought the Nitron shock last summer but it did not come with the preload adjuster tool?? Wish Simoniz would make tough silver also

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Paul, I've noticed the colour range expanding over the last couple of years, in fact the change of name to 'Tough Paint' as opposed to the old name 'Tough Black' was probably because they started doing different colours, but you're right, no silver yet... however, you could paint your parts with the first two coats in Tough Paint and then use their Wheel Paint over the top for the final coat... you'll still get the tough resilient finish you want, but also the final colour will be what you want.. just a thought mate, maybe that would be a second best for ya??

[@pauldavies5199]

Moonfleet41 That’s an interesting thought, may just try that. Did my wheels in satin black after watching an older video of yours. Now want to some smaller parts and the swingarm in silver, can’t get bobbins for the older Hornet and fed up with the paddock stands rubber cups scratching it. Cheers Del

You've made my 18 year old zx6r and my wifes sv650 (see my vid on my channel) look fab thanks to your inspiration so therefore its only fair i will become a patron.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Russell, so good to hear from you mate... just watched your video out on the bike with Mrs Wilson, look like you had a great time, I wish more couples would ride together... so often we go to bike meets and she's the only girl there, there has to be more girl riders out there aye?? Thank you so much for your kind support, it's amazing that our videos have been able to help you in some way... welcome aboard my friend, it's great to have your support... ride safe and stay in touch, all the very best, D&Px

[@BarnsleyBob]

Looking really good Del, it's exciting to watch it all coming together now! Given it's a Kawasaki, are there any plans to incorporate some 'green' into the paint job? 😉

[@Moonfleet41]
