Re: finally started
I was offered a genuine silver one a few years ago, by someone I know and at a very good price. I turned it down and kick myself now, 'cos the new owner had it resprayed green/white...

Re: finally started
Well, I've been around my bikes, all in need of lots of stuff, as I buy them in baskets, but most of my time is spent with my 10 month daughter.
Just out of curiosity how much does a decent paintjob cost there? Here, before crisis reached the today's levels it began at 400 euros reaching up to 650 for a professional outcome. I haven't quoted any price recently, as it is sure to be out of my reach. And I am completely worthless when it comes to the whole painting procedure. I can only paint a frame or caliper, maybe even a yoke but when it comes to plastics, I better stay away....

Re: finally started
We'll last week I contacted Kawasaki uk about a dating cert for the old girl, they told me they send in the frame number, engine number and a cheque for 54 quid they would send the details to japan if every thing matched the would send me a dating letter or if the numbers didn't match my money back. How many 30 year old bikes that have been ridden still have the same engine? So I thought cut out the middle man and emailed KHI japan with frame and engine numbers asking for a date of manufacture and hey presto today email confirming details along with the date September 1984, I wonder if the DVLA will accept an email as proof of dating? Comments!!

Re: finally started
Have you ever tried to speak to a human at DVLA, it's an amazing computerised switchboard that sends you round and round till u get pissed of and hang up. To date I have never spoken to any one there.
