That's a sweet tool chest. I like the giant Penzoil decal sliced across the drawers. Might have to get a giant DO THE TON logo and do the same on mine. The new paint looks good - need a good closeup.

Thanks!

The chest kinda dropped into my hands. It's gonna be great to be able to finally get my stuff organized.

Ya, the Penzoil sticker is an eye catcher!

A giant DTT sticker would be cool fer sure!

The paint will look great in the sun I think. In any case, the old paint was a mess and desperately needed a re-paint as soon as possible. A buddy was getting 2 sets painted by a friend, so I slipped mine in there as well! ;D
The close-up will come as the weather gets nicer.

So here is the rest of my Bultaco

 

[stroker crazy]

It looks like you're going to have some serious cleaning up to do - especially with the seat!

Good luck!

Ehh.. A little leather conditioner and it'll buff right up! Hahahaha!

 

[4eyes]

That looks like something that I would drag home. ;D

 

[Swagger]

[ProSimex]

My buddy Frank gave me these on Friday:

Molded ABS plastic side bags.

They will be repainted and mounted to the FZR. Should work out well for the ride to the Spring Thaw!

 

[Redbird]

Picked this up for my son...

He mentioned that he was going to get one from the PX but couldn't afford it. So I figured I'd hook him up before he leaves

 

[Tifun]

Nice! If he's going to basic he should probably leave it with you. I had my gerber taken when they packed personal gear up...(theft)

As for knives I was issued a badass benchmade that I got to keep when we went down range, spring assisted and all. I'm a huge knife fan but could never justify the cost, especially after using what I have haha. Did it come with anything in the tool kit???

New-to-me tool box! Now to organize my tools... I hate searching for that thing-a-ma-jig!!

Drewski, any other pics of the front end of the bike on the left? I've got the same GSXR fender and it looks huge, however yours looks great after paint am much more in proportion.

Cheers.

Bought me a small blasting cabinet with included blast gun for those small parts.. Like calipers and valve covers

I might come to you and do some blasting then ^^

16 gauge 48" box and pan brake. Couldn't believe how cheap it went on sale for. I have a 30" 3 in 1 brake/shear/rolls combo for years now but have always cursed its limitations and have had my eye on this one.

 

[beachcomber]

I needed a 32mm socket ......went to my local motor factor £25 EACH !!

Went on e-bay and bought this complete 1" drive set including ratchet, T bar and extension for £30 [ $50?] - INCLUDING CARRIAGE. Doesn't make sense does it ?

While I was trawling I found this internal bearing puller. Ideal as I have 6 wheels to pull the bearings out of and 5 of them have as new bearings fitted - £30 [ $50 ? ] Less than the cost of a pair of bearings ! ;D

 

[Tim]

An internal bearing puller is handy. I use expanding concrete anchor bolts

 

[Kanticoy]

I've got that same puller, been working well for 5 years+. Good get. Tim that's a great idea!

I bought furniture yesterday. Couch, loveseat, chair, and ottoman. Exciting, I know.

Sorry Neevo, nothin' else of the new paint yet, but I'll work on it!

It's actually a zx10r fender tho!

I have some of the old red paint job. It was originally all red, but I didn't like it. I painted the side panels painted black with the centre fender section painted red. That was the plan this time too, but the painter got the signals crossed.

First look:

Then:

I'll probably leave it all red for now, but I'm guessing I'm gonna prefer the black side panels eventually. 8)
