Opps, wrong topic :blush:
Our 650 project is really coming along now that My sons home for the Summer.
The frame should get painted this weekend then it's time to start ordering the parts :pinch:
The body parts are still original paint the tail and side covers are in great shape, the tank not so much.
Brake fluid has attacked the middle section around the badge and there is a dent to the left also in the middle.
The top isn't pretty but good enough.
Matching the existing would probably be as expensive as doing the whole thing but I'd loose the pin strip and we're on a tight budget so I'm considering doing a different color in the middle with spray cans.
If you have any suggestions or pics you want to share please do.
