Zeds ready for paint..!!
Well good couple of days getting the zed ready for paint,all welding and filling done. Now sanding ready to for priming,i have used 1200 sandpaper on old paint to key primer to the paint is this right or do i wet and dry it as well? I know between primer coats i have to wet and dry it using 1200 but do i do this before applying primer? How many coats of primer do i give before top coats and how many top coats would you say i apply? Any advice would be greatly appreciated:-)

Modifying my bike
Well got to say that after years of riding sports bikes was thinking of trading the old girl in for smoothing like a bandit(more comfortable riding position),but after realisation of getting nothing for it px,thought I will modify my exup,so after doing a bit of research found an engineering company that do a full handle bar raiser kit for the fzr1000,so going down this road so I can keep my old bike :-),anyone done this? I have been Reading the revues and all positive saying fantastic riding position when done,so here a few pics of the strip down read for my new top yolk and bars.
