Howdy there!

New to the forum and in the process of rebuilding my '82 GPZ1100 which I bought new in '82. It hasn't been regisitered since '95. Finding parts seems to be a little difficult.

Does anyone know or recommend engine paint? How bout tin paint? Who supplies it, etc.

Thanks for any help.

Hey Zebro! Welcome to KZR...I too, bought one new in '82 and loved it...which is why I had to get another several years ago. My '82 GPz is slowly undergoing a resurrection and it has taken those several years to locate some of the parts...so, you are correct in your assessment. TB33 is pretty much right on with his view of PJ1 (although I have had troubles with 'spattering' from PJ1 cans). So, what parts are you lacking on your B2? And pictures would be nice...and where are you located?
