If I painted the frame, then I would dissassemble the whole thing. Then while I had it apart, I would replace the steering componts "while I had it apart" then I would replace the bushings" while I had it apart". The list goes on.

I left it alone because this project is expensive enough already. I just dont have the money to replace everything in one single swipe. It will eventually happen, plus I might be doing some mods to the frame itself so I feel it is a waist to paint it.

After analyzing, no matter what, you could be able to see at least a tiny part of the frame so I decided to paint the frame from the cross over foward. Just please, everyone stop yelling at me! [-o< . :smurf:
