Touching Up..... - SV650.org

SoulKiss · 10-10-06, 09:42 AM

Was looking at my bike and noticed a couple of "paint defects" (scratches to you and me) on the tank - either the tank bag, or maybe just careless with a key

Also noticed a couple of other bits of paintwork that could be doing with a touch-up - the grab-handle, and possibly the front fairing where it was dropped.

So, is there any after market "touch-up paint" products for the SV?

Would like it to look as good as possible, but main reason is to protect the now bare metal.

Or should I go visit a bodyshop?

Are they interested in doing little jobs like this?

Halfwits do scratch repair work. Not cheap mind.

Try a few bodyshops, they will do it. But go to smaller places, they'll have more time for you.

You can get a colour coded paint stick from your local Suzuki dealer if you want to do it yourself.
