Men at work / Lavori in corso


You may remember I crashed later in 2009.
Well, after the crash I just removed the fairings and equipped the bike with crash pads.
Now, during the winter pause, I am doing several things, including full repaint.
New color will be MATT BLACK, like this:

Ricorderete che sono caduto verso fine stagione 2009.
L'unica cosa che feci fu rimuovere le carene e metterci dei funghi :)
Ora, durante la pausa invernale, sto facendo diversi lavori, tra i quali nuova livrea... la quale sarà NERO OPACO, così:






And wheels will be ELECTRIC BLUE, like this mysterious object

E le ruote saranno BLU ELETTRICO, come questo misterioso oggetto:




So here some pictures from my own workshop. I'll post more as long as the project advances.Così ecco delle foto dalla mia officina. Man mano che il progetto andrà avanti vi terrò aggiornati.

Wheels are being sand grinded.
