Sparty's artwork
« on: January 17, 2010, 01:53:05 PM »
Guys,

To continue to explore my artistic side and pass some time this winter I am taking an art class at Penn State.  The class is in Pen and Ink.

My first product is below.

I am thinking that I may focus on this particular style of art work.  It is my interpretation of pen and ink, but I used a India ink marker (similar to a Sharpie).  I may even begin to do some commissions of there is interest.  My neighbor wants me to draw his GTO.

That's great work, maybe you could do the BOTM calendar...?   I'd throw an ad out on craigslist selling that service under the radar.  ::)

hi sparty, this is off topic but i was wondering which carb insulators you are using for you cr's, im getting close to mounting mine and read somewhere on here that the f2 insulators might be a better fit for the cr's as opposed to the k1-k6 version

I got my intakes from Z1 Enterprises.  They fit Honda CB750K1/K2/K3/K4/K5/K(76)/F/F(76)
Part # 16211-300-030-K

They fit perfectly.
