Rebuilding the track bike.
Thought I'd put up some pics of the process.
I was in the middle of an engine swap and TJR178 got me to go in on some powder coating.
So I caved and did it.
I had 3/4 of the bike apart anyway so I pulled the rest of it apart and sent everything out for color.
I got everything back today and got started.
My garage looks like a Ducati bomb went off in it. I hope to have it running by Sunday.
more pics to come.

A piston...
Etc

I quit worrying about the price once I saw the orange.
When you look away, the image stays in your retinas

Okay, now you need to paint your KTM Ducati red.
It'll satisfy my sense of proportion.

That would be wrong of me to do that to a KTM
