  1. Here's 2 pics of my Summit that I just finished painting. First I had
    the frame stripped to bare metal, then wet-sanded, 3 coats primer, 4
    coats enamel, then baked in my oven at 250 degrees for 20 minutes,
    removed and cooled with cold water. Nice scratch resistant result!
    Assembled and took pics. I also added a KH lift handle to the standard
    viscount seat that came with the Summit, and painted that and the rear
    bumper with matching paint. This in addition to also having the cranks
    coated, and working 2 jobs...all in one day! I'm tired!:p

  3. Thats pretty awesome. I just painted my summit too, you did it better
    though, I didn't bake it or anything and if it hits anything it takes
    off a chunk of paint. I won't be riding it until I get a new shim
    though...Wow, I got off track. I like how the frame matches the bumper
    and handle. 😉

  7. here's another look at the original for comparison. (the saddle was
    temporary, so that doesn't count. :p ) I guess they both look pretty
    good in their own way.

  8. I do like your paint job, but me, personally...I'm more partial to the
    red.

    If I had to change, though, I do love your color choice. Reminds me of
    a perfectly ripe banana.

  9. I added a little "lightening bolt" so it wouldn't look so plain. I made
    it with black packing tape, so if I don't like it later I can take it
    off without damaging the paint. But it's sticking on there real good
    right now. What do you think?:p

  10. Thats pretty nice. I think some black flame stickers from Darren would
    look pretty nice on there too.

    No, I had to fit it in there by removing the old front bumper tabs,
    then drilling 4 holes for the kh handle. fits really good.
