            Please don't forget to comment guys, and give opinion about the paint job. As its not yet completed its only the 50% work done by myself. Now I have to replace my existing spoke wheel to three leaf alloy wheel , 2nd I have to change rear look to similar look alike royal enfield . 3rd I have to change the handle bar to pulser 200 , last but not the least the headlight which I'll have to replace to new one.

                  Dear Joy Sen, That Painting seems to be top notch job. Could you please share the details of the surface preparation and how many coats of paint have been used. Also what kind of equiptment is used, time for drying, sanding procedure and clear coating etc. Including the brands and the expenses. THis would be of immense help to any DIY enthusiast ( INcluding Me ). Please stick to stock colour and pattern scheme and do not venture out for any radical approach.

                  Cheers

                        The bike looks gorgeous without even any stickers. Select the sticker carefully as a compromised graphics job can do a whole lot bad to the beauty. Check for the best in your city. If necessary, source from outside....

                              Hi nice updates there but as i have already mentioned in my previous post i like to keep this legend stock as much as possible , btw the indicators go good with the bikes neeat paint job and color theam what handbar are u using ? And this cross bar (leg gaurd) is not very old i see here in chennai lot of ppl use this but its not that safe for both the rider and the pedestian as this has sharp edge and not advisible the best is the inverted butterfly wings.

                              Please do change the tyres first 😉😁it looks like non threaded track tyres

                                First of all I would talk about tyres, I need big threaded tyre like motocross maxxis , Which is not available in my state or city , so I am looking forward to get it asap. I am posting tyre's pic below. The handle bar is from Bajaj pulser 200 old single bar.
