USMCBattles,

I picked mine up at the local Napa store. They sell for around 8 bucks a can.

Or try Amazon.com.

Here is the list of things I used this stuff on:

Fork lowers, triple trees, handlebars, crash bar, heavy breather, dash, headlight trim, horn cover and all the windshield hardware including the detachable clamps. Had the battery cover completely done but the seat rubbed the top and it started to peel so only a portion of the band is done in it.
