And these aren't very expensive. Let's hope I can build this. I wanted to try something different this time. 3

BlrwestSiR Posted Sunday at 12:26 PM Posted Sunday at 12:26 PM Those exhausts look great. How did you do the heat staining on them? 1
DocRob Posted Sunday at 12:59 PM Posted Sunday at 12:59 PM Nice, but I guess most will be hidden under the fairing. BTW: I think, some more yellow and a bit less blue temper color would be more realistic. The colors show the temperature which the gases inside have in certain areas, tighter passages are hotter and therefore have a different color ranging from blue over red to yellow. Cheers Rob 2

I used acrylic crystal light blue A-MIG-0098. This is this is usually used to create lenses and prisms to tanks and cars😄 1 1

I know. I don't have the tools or the colors to create different color nuances right now. That would be a nice addition, but some compromises have to be made. 3
FullArmor Posted Sunday at 03:12 PM Author Posted Sunday at 03:12 PM I don't know if you've ever put these together? But that's exactly how I felt when I put the exhaust pipes together. Everything had to be in line at the same time. 😄 5
FullArmor Posted Monday at 04:06 PM Author Posted Monday at 04:06 PM A bit of progress. Next front forks. 3
