Hopefully, some better pics of the frame  I like this Picasa 3 - a good recommendation by RJ2Para The VIN Tag was removed for Powder Coating and needs to be reaffixed. It's just held on to the frame with some wire to prevent loss at present |

Woooow! ;D I really want to do this to mine at some point. Care to enlighten us on how it was done, preparation, type of paints, costs etc?  I'm really interested in restoring my bike one day. |

It was a cheque book job Preparation was removing everything (the Head bearings are a complete sod Then down to a local firm who powder coated it I had a Beemer frame and a load of brackets etc done, I think the all up cost was circa £200, probably equally split between Beemer and NTV. NTV parts in black Side stand Centre Stand Engine Brackets Bottom Yoke in Silver Frame Top Yoke Handlebars and probably some other bits too The pictures do not do it justice - it's drop dead gorgeous   |
