Day 76 - Frame

South Berwick, ME

(806/365)
I've finally answered my year-old question of "Has anyone painted their VStrom Frame?"
I am answering 'Yes'.
Bedliner takes about 15 minutes to apply the three coats (this is at coat #2) over an hour period of time. It takes about 3 hours of prep though to get to the painting stage. I had to wrap everything, including my chain and rear caliper. I'm not shooting for perfection here, I'm shooting for initial appearance. What I have missed with the bedliner, I expect to cover up with dirt and grime in the first month back on the road.
