Hi everyone, I just bought my first Harley, she's n 87 1100XL Sportster. When I bought her she was Lemon Twist Pearl....YUCK. Unbolted the tank and fenders and proceeded to give her a new look. Covered her with netting ...sprayed red cinderbrick pearl over the netting and yellow. Cleared and sanded the parts. Taped on some old school flames,added 5 coats of Burgandy candy and 5 coats of clear..and BUFFED....NOW she's gorgeous again! I've had a few compliments on the paint and tomorrow we are going to my first Bike Rally with her and the Missus. Should be a good time.
