Cheers 375 patina has many meanings but all points in the general direction i catch your drift, and the fairing needs a bit of tlc as i broke it but not a problem though, and i have had my hair styled to the over 40 look
The over 40 hair style i do have a fringe that is starting to work its way back to my neck.
You have done a fine job =D>

i've enjoyed the bits i have polished but glad the main of it is powder coated. just about to finish my spraying off, just doing all the prep work, wheels, rear seat and i'm going to do a spare tank for now i've got, has a dent but going to fill and see what it comes out like, i have got a good tank but waiting for the key which will arrive soon, not sure if i'll get any spraying done but prep work will be cheers.

Hi Wayne,
I am still enjoying the project (otherwise it would be on flebay), makes me smile when I take the cover off it.
I always wanted a bike with an alloy frame so that I could polish it ......... just didn't reckon on it taking this long to get it, so I am not in any rush (having waited over 25 years) .
Cheers
Bernie

Hi Wayne,
I'm hoping to start the re-spraying on my bike in the next couple of weeks.
I have been reading & re-reading this post & most of the other posts (John-b =D> ) regarding paint application.
I've got the paint/thinners/activator etc, any more tips? Before I start?
I think I've done my prep ok? But anymore advice is sorely appreciated...

Hi Howie, i think i just about covered it all, but only don't panic with runs just leave to dry rub out later, and make sure surface clean but you will get bits of dirt floating unless you have a dust free enviroment, but any questions or problems just give me a shout cheers Wayne.
