Removed my Hindle today...

[ghostntheshell]

Well. I removed my hindle today. Started with the front two pieces.
Very easy. The rear? Not too bad - but the rear left was diffucult. Took a lot of manipulation and a little bit of cursing

I was going to sand it down and re-coat it myself with a spray bomb (I know everyone says it'll just flake off - but I wanted to try it anyway) but I have come to the decision to have it ceramic coated.

The main piece of the pipes (where both sides meet into one) looked a little too pitted for my liking. It NEEDS a proper sand blast and high quality coat.

So - here's some pics of my work

You have a Filter Queen Vacuum! I have the newer version in black and chrome!

Should look good once you get the pipes all cleaned up and coated.

Make sure they coat inside AND out.

Your pillion pad has had more padding added to it. Did you do that?

LOL

My LADY has a filter queen. It's her garage

And I had no idea about the extra padding in the seat. I bought it like that.

I am ordering seans seat as soon as I can verify some info he wanted to know - something about making sure it was intact (I still have the email).





Yeah - I got a good quote for the ceramic. Inside and out. Prepped and all.

Your passenger seat looks extra fluffy too.

You already have a modded seat. Don't know if it is Sean's but you need to check as there may be minimal improvement over what you already have with any other seat or seat mod. Might be a waste of money to change.

I am looking to get Seans seat regardless. I like the look of his seat - as well as the fact that it will be the colour and material that I want. All part of what I am trying to make my bike look like...

I will have to ask Sean if this seat is going to be OK for a core...

1.) Yup - my rear seat is extra fluffy - the previous owner must have had a fickle lady friend and wanted a softer seat

2.) I dropped the exhaust off today to get the coating.
I will post pics of the fresh pipes - and my install (tight fit the rear pipes are!)
