Fantastic, just totally stunning and my fav type of makeover too - budget. Its not about the parts, its about the thought and style.

Is the frame painted or powdered?

Well I and Caroline think it looks fantastic. As for helping it was and is a pleasure to help mates out. Having done one before it makes it easier but very frustrating seeing an idea I had had before I ended up with my scheme being used with such great results.
I feel privalaged I have already seen it and sat on and admired the deep glitter in the paint.

Two things I recommend you do.
1) Get a seat cowl done for when you show it or solo it. It really would be the business.

2) Get those red ducati stickers of your lid. You now need to look cool on your cool looking bike. ( or get a Momo lid )

Well done mate and I really want to start mine over again. Yes REALLY !!!!!!!!

I'd never recognise the old girl - RESPECT, and I look forward to seeing it for real.
You'll just have to dress tidy now so as not to spoil the effect.

Cool sparkle motion

I like the mirrors, are they sort of diamond shaped?

I have some light blue lipgloss that will match if you want it

Those mirrors are real nice I must say. A bit wide for filtering but a great rear rear look and very pretty.

I just removed it and took it to the coaters with the center part masked up.the powder coating is a real pain when it comes to getting parts back on as its so thick but worth the time and cost i think.
