I like it! Nice to see brown's/copper's used, and used well. Is there any trick needed to get the paint to last on the head or will it not get hot enough to be a problem! I always assumed they were painted with some sort of VHT stuff, but that was only an assumption.

Still, I reckon you'll get plenty of enthusiasts coming up to have a nosey.
Maybe get some panniers and fairings like this beast lololol.
Very cool, you made a butt F#@k old Honda look like something exotic. I'm impressed. Are you going to fit fork gaiters! If you are, I just use a set of CV boots from a kit for cars. Much cheaper & you can cut the ends to suit the different tube diameters. Use black cable ties to secure. Much cheaper than bike gators & you cant tell the diff.

Yeah, it kinda has that "old" look to it aye.
That pic' ya posted is of an old Police bike from the UK. Now if i could find a Rickman fairing i'd put that on.

Thanks mate. Yeah i was going to fit fork gaiters but the lower legs are a funny size so couldn't find any in NZ. May try the CV idea tho'.

I fitted them to a CX500 & you wouldnt know them from the real thing. The CX had an odd size dia. leg too which is why I used them.
