Re: SV Curvy retro racer project
Silver is the best colour, although I think red would go well with your project

Re: SV Curvy retro racer project
"Great minds..."
But it'd be around £1500 to do, so I think silver it is. |

Re: SV Curvy retro racer project
Well, having done a bit of design work for a member on another forum, (who happens to be a spray painter) I've got a good quote on a grey with silver detailing paint job.
Hoping to have the parts done in the next week or so, so I'll post pics once it's ready! In the meantime, I've bought a second-hand swing arm for £15 which is gonna be powder coated black... It's all coming together! |

Re: SV Curvy retro racer project
Righto... paint job done!
Lots yet to do, but with a new baby due any day I'll be taking my time over the next few months... - Black swingarm - Polish/refurb/coat headers - custom exhaust hanger (so I can remove the pillion peg hangers) - paint/polish/coat lots of other various parts Anyhoo, hope you like. |
