    can they go that extreme??



    Come to think of it...Cher & Joan Rivers went that extreme, so I guess they can makeover Old Man too :lol: :lol: :lol:



    I can tell you I use to deliver to Cher. If I could have a body like that OMG. She has to be around 60 years old and her body is better then most 20 year olds. As for Joan Rivers, she looks like a alien. So I look a lot more like her. :lol:

    Yeah but their bodies are mostly plastic...ask Bo...he works in the plastics industry.

    Well if i told you I would have to kill you on the plastics. I think maybe pink, NOT.


    Christina got a MRI on Monday and she has a torn meniscus in her knee. :cry: They are saying it's not real bad like I did, but she goes in to see a specialist to see what the next step is. :shock:

    She said the race is still on no matter what. :lol:

    The frame isn't painted. I had it powder coated so it will last longer. We went with a color called sparkling silver. It almost looks like the color on a CRF230 frame. Then they put a clear over it.

    Man do I, well I do have one but no room in it. We run a business out of the house and half of the garage is full of that stuff. The rest has 3 bikes and some other stuff in it. I need to keep open a area for pallets when we have stuff coming in. So the patio is the place for it.

    Thanks, I should have the finished pictures up today. I just put the new fenders on.

    What are you trying to do with your plastics?

    I remembered someone posting about a product that makes um look better (found it ... Plexus). I have new shrouds and front fender and was looking to freshen up the side number plates and rear fender.

    After cleaning with Plexus, put a coat of Maxima SC1 on them and they will look new.
