    WOW! That big red is amazing! That's one of the sharpest bigreds i've seen in a long time. Hopefully I can get mine looking that good oneday.
    Was it expensive to get your tank painted? And how did you get your fenders to look like that?

    The sealer is POR15, love it so far. Much easier to use than Redkote. It looks like molten silver, I can't wait till it cures and I can get my Big Red going again.
    Where do you get this POR15 tank sealer?

    Thanks guys. The rear fender is MAIER fenders, the front fender was off of a very nice 87, ScottZJ did that when he had it. The POR15, Syko got it, so dunno for sure, maybe Google for it. As far as cost, we swapped parts and this and that for his work.

    you can get POR15 off of ebay. If you use it be sure to add a inline filter
    The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it.

    It's been so long, I forgot where I got the decals. I'll check and see.
