Re: KR1 Restoration
Hi Andrew,
Looking good![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Is the gold stone guard standard or personal preference?
(I think it looks good)
Cheers
Bernie![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: KR1 Restoration
Have to say Andrew I'm sure they're black, I had a KR1 in 1991 and the ZXR 750 of the same period uses a very similar guard and that's black too
My KR1-S guard was black [with a little rust!] until I resprayed it black last week and my ZXR H1 was too. Both were the factory finish.

Re: KR1 Restoration
Just been down the shed and it looks they I am probably wrong and they are black. The ones I have there are quite rusty but look black under the fixings.

Re: KR1 Restoration
Well Andrew,
Are you going to leave it gold?
I would like a stainless steel one and a nice alloy radiator (pace).![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: KR1 Restoration
the rad guard on my kr-1 has been black since 1989 (when I bought it brand new)
