Man, the more I look at this, the better it looks. I wish I had the skills and ambition to do this kind of thing.

 

I'm curious, what color primer did you use underneath black and yellow? I know only very little about painting. It would seem to me that whatever color would work well underneath one of those colors would not work very well underneath the other one.

Hello pegscraper i used a gray prImer when i was doing the prep then when i painted it i used a light gray sealer before i put the paint on. the yellow went on frist becouse it would take a lot of yellow to cover the black. the yellow dose not cover very good. so you have to use a lot of coats to get it to cover real good. then after i put the yellow on i let it set over night. then i went to tapping up the yellow to put on the black. the stripes and yamaha on the trunk are painted. after the back went on i removed the tape and paper and clear coated it all. i used 3 coats of clear. i am glad yor like. it i went to the yamaha dealer tue after work and the salesman said he never saw a yellow one before i told him it was one of a kind he liked it also.

Tell us how you did those rear speakers.

[dacheedah]

Looks awesome like a super bee!!! Put a little spoiler on the trunk, very sweet

[Richie R]

Looks great, nice job on your rear speaker install. I think chrome wheels would be awesome on your bike. You did good.

very nice...:thumbsup2:

Excellent job. I especially liked the way you put the bigger speakers in the rear. Maybe someday in the future you might think about doing the speakers housings, leaving bare for painting, and just swap out???I'm pretty sure you'd get a lot of customers just off this site.

[Guest Zak202]

Beautiful job. I am considering painting mine, just trying to come up with a unique color scheme. I will cross out Yellow/Black!

[The Reg]

Nice Work.

 

Cheers,

That is a SERIOUSLY good looking Venture!! I sure wish there was an aftermarket for the rear speakers/housing!!
