Looks good. Rattle can paint has come along way. The SprayMax 2 part clear coat is key. That stuff works great, and keeps the gas from eating your paint. I would have done a wet sand then a cut, buff and polish to take it to the next level. I've done a few paint jobs and f you don't go crazy with the wet sand you won't burn though the clear... just knock the shine off of it to get rid of some orange peal then take the buffer to it. Maybe on the next one you can experiment a little.

Hey, it looks really good from here. It's a rider anyway, not a show bike. It's got that chopper look because you didn't put anything on the tank and no front fender. I spray bombed my '53 Buick with red oxide primer back in the day, at least it was all one color.😀😃

I'm curious as to how well the oil cooler works on your bike? Seems to me that there's a lot of surface area to dissipate a lot of heat. The reason I'm asking is that I was thinking about getting one myself. The stock oil cooler on my 78 flh shovelhead seems rather small. I've never had any problems with mine, but most of my rides are on country roads and very little in town or in cities.
