Rebel,

I've got two Road Comets, one silver and one black. As the others have described mine are the same color inside and out. I like the idea of painting the inside flat black or ??? Cheers.

Chip

They are nice, aren't they? Thumbs Up

At night, if you have a light leak around the headlight, there is a fix for that. I think by Chip Beck--in the how to area. I did it on mine, with a slight difference of material. I don't even ride at night Big Grin

Looks great on your bike!!

Funny, the pic is kind of an optical illusion. It looks like it could be the front of the fairing.

By the lack of masking tape, I assume you brushed it ?

Chapomis, I did brush it. However, I did mask it off anyhow. Just my own OCD. I had already removed the tape for the pic. I used the Frog Tape that was recommended by EgAlvarez.

Thanks Popgun and thanks to the members blazing the trail and taking the guess work out of working on the CB . I am now getting ready for the seat upgrade . I am most likely going with the Chip Beck Speck. I live a hour away from " Corbin". Thanks guys for all your help!

I went down there and watched my seat being made and had them modify it a little because I felt that the pocket moved me further back om the seat than I was comfortable with. If you want to check it out I would be more than willing to let you before you head down there.
