A month ago I hoped I would be shaking down this car tomorrow.
I suppose I am eating humble pie, which I am proud to admit tastes delicious.
The skills I have learned, confidence gained and personal growth I’ve experienced in the passed couple weeks is invaluable!
After the highs of cutting, welding and grinding last week to the reality of paint this week. I was under the impression that paint would hide small imperfections. Not! Quite the contrary in fact. It amplifies them, every last wrinkle, standing proud, cutting that freshly found confidence to shreds.
Fortuanately, “it’s only paint”, nothing that cannot be reworked and repainted. Multiple times. An iterative process which I’ve become intimately familiar with and for now I am provisionally happy with the results. That is, until the truth serum speaks reveals otherwise. Again!
PAINT
I was going to keep the color to myself and do a big reveal, but I can’t keep a secret for sh!t. So please keep this between us.
Why the color I hear you protest. Well, as a Ducati Dealer everything was Red and as KTM Dealer everything was Orange. Needless to say, one does get tired of these colors…
Back in the day, i had a Yellow 748R, which I referred to as my Mojo R.
Introducing my Mojo Too. Great things will come from this journey!
