Respray 99% Complete

Right decided after a year and a half of owning thee bike it was time for a refresh. Was a little bored of the Grey on the S4 and the tank was leaking so got it welded. Perfect excuse. Got it done in spare time at work and then a really really late night. I wanted the theme of a black bike with white stripe going down it but off center. I decided on a Ford F150 Black with a hot rod white sparkle white stripe and ducati badge.

I ordered a rear seat cowl first, came in some ones rattle can special red


Front Fairing Primed and heavily flatted


Tank primed and 2 hours of flatting


Rear Seat cowl dodgy paint gone and primed and flatt


Tank Based in Black


Front fairing based in black


Seat cowl based and the 2 hours started of the very tedious line masking for the stripe and ducati lettering


Seat cowl white stripe painted


Front fairing white stripe painted


Tank white stripe painted with ducati lettering painted as well

Getting there, demasked ready for clear, Actually really liked the look of it in matte.



Clear coat on




The morning after in sunlight


You can see the red in the paint in full sunlight, pictures dont do it justice


All panels reflatted with 2000 on blocks and the re cleared

In the office wating to be fitted and have final finish done, Will upload pics once I have done the wheels to match the white

Nice job - well done

Wow! Wish i could paint. What do you charge for a 3 panel paint job like that?

I want mine redoing in senna grey with white central stripe, white number boards on the seat cowl with silver edging, and white sides on the tank with silver edging and ducati corse logo each side of the tank.

Nice job looks amazing, i have the s2r with the black and white stripe i think it's the best colour, great choice , i am sure you will have alot of request now.

I have to say I was liking the matt until I saw the gloss look. Actually like both and looks a top job. Look forward to seeing on the bike. Well done

I love that deep red depth its sparkly isn't it?
It's lovely... What a talented chap
I enjoy flattening and bringing up the depth again in paint .
There's something do tactile about it.
Id kill to spray !

Looks awesome, fella.

Are you going to powder coat the rims too to give it the whole black look or just keep as is?

Excellent job, top marks for that finish.

Looks mint fella
