Default Respray?

Approx how much does a respray cost do you think, I'm thinking either just canyon yellow (or close to it) or maybe factory colours on a Curvy S.

Parts would include

Rear Fairing RHS, LHS, and middle
Hugger
Belly Pan
Front fairings RHS, LHS and middle (nose)
Front mudguard
Fender extender
Tank

i have bits that are all different shades of canyon and a red tank so am curious what sort of wedge I'd need to save to get the lot done? - Many Thanks

Ravingdavis had a similar job done for 250 quid, but I haven't seen the result. This was the cheapest I've seen when the work included the prep.

400 quid seems to be about the going rate for a full respray, a bit more if there is dents and cracks to remove and filling to be done, but you haven't included the tank and the nose fairing in your list, so I'd say expect to pay about 300 quid plus a bit more for any repair work that needs done.

Depends on how much work you're prepared to do, do all the prep work yourself and it can be quite cheap, hand them a bike and expect a bike back freshly painted and you're going to pay.
