Kwaker,

Does the green grin through the black on the tank and duck tail like it does on the frame :?:

Still got some bits to do on it, the clocks are off for refurb by Chris Rivett, they should be back sometime in January, got something different planned for them. :!:

I've got a new PMC Z1 custom seat & new headlamp brackets coming from Z-power & i thought i would get a full set of braided clutch, brake, tacho, speedo & throttle cables for it.

Guyzed has just swaped some engine covers with me, so here's the pics of them fitted

Hi Guyzed, yes it's got a green pearl in all the black, it's really eye catching when the sun hits it :confu

What did Revolution charge for your paint job?
It looks absolutely wicked.

Love the paint :bow

cost of the paint for tank & panel set is about Â£325, obviously if you get your wheels done then it goes up a chunk, they also did the frame & a bucket full of bits, all in all i supose it was quite expensive & you can pay a lot less for powder coating :shock:

but......they do such a good job & it all gets rubbed down & it's got all these sparkley green bits in it & it looks soooo good that they've already got the tank & panels for the next project that i'll be starting once i've got this one on the road.....and i'm gunna be broke for the rest of my life....and who cares coz at least my bikes will look nice.

was i rambling just then :lol:

No. You weren't rambling .And I should know.

They really have done a fantastic job.
I bet it will look ten times better when the summer sun hits it.

Think I may just pop over to Revolution after the New year about the paintwork for my H.
