Default The Famous Blue Bandit Garnerwarriors Build and Pic thread

As a few of you may know of the famous blue bandit,Garnerwarrior (Dwights) warrior has seen her better days, 50,000 miles, two crashes, and some very easy easy riding thru the mountains have brought it to this point.

Shes a lil beaten, few scratches, few dents, some peeling paint, bald tires and a slipping clutch.

Some crazy guy from Indiana decided to take this project on, House of Kolor paint, two tone base clear, power coating the rims, doing some clean up all around, ceramic coating the speedstar exhaust, Barnett SR-2 conversion kit, repainting the swing arm, fender struts and side covers also. Will be some other things I'll post pics and info along the way, not gonna post finish pics untill he see it though gotta keep Dwight on th edge of his seat.

If all goes well she'll be good as new over the winter and just in time for a delivery date to TWOT Fest.

Have to give Hurd some credit for helping me pick the bike up in North Carolina at Warrior fest but shes under the knife in Indianapolis.

Also if anybody has some spare forward OEM forward controls, stock mirrors laying in the dust they maybe some help also.

I'll work on getting current pics posted tonight, gonna pull the tins tonight if all goes well.

Dwight called me and asked me to tell you that he changed his mind. He decided he wants the bike done in all pink with chrome spikes on the fenders. Glad I could help!
