    now to shoot that darned high-solids primer. Got another gallon of that stuff for my D-T, think I'll take it back and get 182 instead of 282. Darn stuff is so think I can't spray it with my equipment...covers well, provides plenty of material to sand and smooth, but near impossible to apply...

    had a little time while the paint was drying, so I swapped the rear tire. Not too hard...

    Got the fender and the fairing wet sanded tonight, in the morning I will finish messing with the fairing, and shoot color and clear... Then we can reassemble Sunday morning perhaps. May wait until all the grommets and such are here... I know that will kill Kyle, not being able to ride his bike, but...he could sure ride the Honda 250...although that would about kill him...fender is in at Great Plains for it, need to get it picked up and installed....
