Go on then give us a clue - what bike is it, what year etc?

We're damn good here at SV650.org, but we're not psychic.

hmm glad I fell in this thread could do with touching up the alternator side, where bambis guts burnt the paint off..looking a bit scabby.
Water pump housing doing the usual thing and the paints falling off a bit.

so what paints best on a 2000 SV

I'm glad I followed that link

. I was expecting some geeky black gloss part number for Hammerite.

Well davemapp entrusted it to our imaginations....and mine isn't to be trusted

My engine paints amazingly good on my '99 curvy (in fairness it's only done 8k though) but once you've painted it dizzy/davemapp I'd get some acf 50 to protect it. Bikes look a right mess with dodgy engine paint.

Mine are going a bit scabby as well , I am tempted to buy newish ones off eBay and send my old ones away to be bead blasted and then Hard Anodised .
