Before and after pic's are what it's all about man, NICE WORK, looks GREAT!

What paint did you (you paint it?) use for the engine because it looks JUST RIGHT !!! ......not too glossy and not too flat and a lot of guys go one way or the other a notch or two, too far, yours looks perfect buddy ! :beer

You also must have taped off the sprocket to get just the inside of holes red like that, I'm into detail like that too, takes more time but so what, gives it a nice effect. I'm sure the sprocket didn't come that way with the chain or did it ?

What was your whole prep job concerning getting the motor ready to paint ?

Hey Huffa....I used High temp charcoal grill paint on the motor, ALOT of elbow greese and some zizwheel/wire wheel/brush action to prep the motor. The chain is a o-ring chain that you can get in red,white,blue and I think other colors also.

Hey F.Y.I. guys the raptor 660 REAR caliper is inner changable, you just have to switch the mount over.
