A few master cylinder repaint pics. Don't send the colorblind guy to get paint. Green under black. R

So it's not black? Is the red a reflection?

Nice to see the 550 puts a smile on yer face, does it for me too... for the last 25 years.

Just looking at those pics I get a buzz from, such nice looking bikes. $200 is silly cheap.

Nice find, keep at it.

It was free to me. $200 into it. I am thinking the tank is gonna need some professional work. Got the badges off and there is some major rust on right side. It don't think sealer is gonna do it. Probably be spring before decision time, but I'll price out a good tank versus getting this one professionally repaired. It's a black master cylinder now, red reflection there. We'll see time is on my side. R

Got a mc cap off an old kz400 mc. It polished up nicely and fits well. Another bellows and rod in good shape for spares. R
