i,m new to posting on the forum although i have been reading the threads for some weeks now and thought i would post some pics on the respray of my friend Jims sv.
there was nothing wrong with it just looking a bit tattie with light scratches and chips to the fairings and rubbing on the rear fairing where the passengers legs had been rubbing.while we had the bike stripped we decided to paint the swing arm as well.
the bikes now back on the road and looking good.so good infact that he nearly traded it in for a 08 gsx-r with 1k miles on saturday because of the great trade in price they offered.fortunatly[spelling!!!] it was to dear to insure so me and my bandit should be able to keep up with him for the moment.
