I don't know about that.
The neighbor kid is going to paint my tank when I get ready. He has the automotive painting equipment. Allen

Not to hijack this thread, but I have about 5700 miles. I have never tried 2up riding, but I think you could do it, but don't expect to get above 60.

It depends on the combined weight of the two.I have had 380 or 400 on mine without problem. As far as how long ive had it. This is new. But its my 3rd one. Second got totaled by a SUV. There is pics on here some where. I weigh 325lbs and am 6'3'-6'4'. I have no problems with it at all

I'm 250 and my daughter is about 110. The GY5 has no problem at all hauling the weight and the brakes will stop it on a dime. Her Trail 90 broke down in Death Valley a few weeks ago so we both ended up on the GY5. Did some long steep climbs including Furnace Creek to Dante's View with good power going up and good brakes coming down.

Are you talking the thread on rhino body liner, someone used that and I was impressed. I like the job you did with the krylon. That's what I used on the cb. For my emblems I used Humbrol model paint. I would recomend it for any detail or custom work you may want to do. Get it at model stores. Sorry man that's all the help I got. N2r. |

Looks good but I agree the flat will look better.
