assuming I can get this posting right...first time posting pics in this forum. lemme know guys...should I repaint it next season? back to the original grey and dark grey scheme? I know Im recovering the seat and need to fix the dent in the tank....but I dont think its too bad for $600 here in the US.







the damage from the last owner dropping it in the truck.

 

Why paint it. You're now part on an exclusive club. The second one's mine, the other I don't know.

 

Sheeeeesh those are big piccies
you may want to reduce them a bit in future
Excellent !
A steal at that price !!!!!!
Good one.

 

Using the Opera browser helps here. One mouse click and it resizes the web page width to fit within your screen, pics and all, so you don't have to use the horizontal scrollbar to see the whole pic.

 

I'll look into it - thanks Joseph.

 

$600?! I envy you! Nice looking cane! I'd leave it in Yellow for the time being and address the tank, seat and your rusty chain first. Other than that, she's a beaut!

I intend to recover the seat and try to pop the majority of the dent out of the tank...will repaint it later to repair the bad spots, the chain has just now become rusty from 2 weeks of rain out here...otherwise it was pretty new and clean till then. sorry for the big pics...dont have my programs on my computer after my HD crash will get to it soon.

 

Good looking bike mate, you did well at that price!! When you repaint it what colours are you going for? I think it looks good in yellow.

 

I liked the original grey/grey scheme, but the more i look at this one...the more I like it in yellow...at least its not a bright neon yellow...the ones above in the other post...those are nice...I like the contrast with the black decals...maybe thats whats missing here...not going to paint this year for certain...maybe over the winter or early next year...if so...it might be the same color...the painter didnt do a great job. Its smooth with no runs, but in some places I swear I can still see grey where they didnt get good coverage on it...its got a white pearl in it as well...just not much...looks good in the sun.

 

Hey Swishered that's a nice looking bike for $600 , you guy's are gettin some bargain prices out there!

That seat's gonna look great when it's re-covered and the yellow looks good but maybe it needs some decals as you said and maybe a couple of subtle shading additions? Maybe a touch of gold but just a touch?
