Duc in a Track Suit

I spent a few nights this week redoing the paint on the fiberglass tail of the Ducati. I broke down and bought a cheap power sander to help strip off the old paint. It worked out pretty well but there was still a lot of hand work to do towards the end.

After finishing the tail I thought about stripping and repainting the nose again. But I've decided to put that off for another day because
a) I'm tired of paint fumes
2) My wife wants her parking space in the garage back
iii) I don't have any good paint left

So, for now, here's what a Duc in a track suit looks like:



I just put the clear coat on Friday night so I still haven't waxed or buffed it. But you can see that it's a much better looking piece than the nose.
