Anybody ever paint your clutch cover because the paint is wore off?? If so what kind of paint did you use. Put a Hinson clutch in my bike and didn't wanna spend the extra hundred on a Hinson clutch cover.

Lumpy, I'm curious what's going on in this picture. It looks like part of the frame is there but some of it is cut off. Is this a MotoHose display?

Good job on the paint. Is there any chance that the paint on the radiators will insulate the fins too much and reduce the cooling efficiency? Or is this thing just for display?

Moto Hose has been picked up by Western Power Sports and the display will feature Moto Hose products in the WPS booth at the dealer convention.

GuyB - Are you going to Indy for the show?

The motor paint & clear coat is good up to 550 deg and increases heat dispersition. After the dealer show the motor & radiators go back in my race bike. I plan to leave from the Atlanta SX and headed to Florida for a week of riding before Daytona.
