Default Bike painters

I had planned to sell up the SV1k and get something a little more sensible...but sense is boring, so I'm keeping the beast.


All ready a great bike but I want to make it a little bit more special. All the extra bits I took off to sell are going back on, but I'm now thinking of a new colour.


Colours I'm thinking off is either a very bright candy red or some sort of light green (not lime though).

My questions to the good people of SV650.org is, if you had a new choice of colour what would you choose?

and...

Anyone know a bike painter in the Thames Valley?





Oooh. Also I would look to get the engine casings painted as there is some flaking and scuffing. I have no idea what is needed to fix this. Can I do it myself?


Cheers and Beers. Neil.

Not in the TV area but Big Al from the eccosse region painted my SV and he's doing Kitkats Raptor at the mo. I posted all the bits upto him and then he posts them back down when they're done. Does a cracking job.

Here's his website... www.justpainted.com

A Lucky Strike paintjob on anything four-stroke would be a bit pants. It's even pretty hackneyed on strokers these days.
