yeh, fair enough. I only use the S1 infrequently so the cost of a 1l bottle of R30 is spread out over some considerable time if it was a daily rider then it would just be getting normal SuperTT.

That paint job looks fantastic Dave ! what have you got in mind for the next project ?

Great paint job looks great! did you say free ? I have 2 down here

Did you have any problems finding the paint code or was he able to colour match it for you with his trained eye?

Kev...the paint was matched using one of the side covers that had relatively good paint.
That's why I've still got one cover to be sandblasted then painted.


Thanks all...must say I'm pretty chuffed with the result.
Here's a quick look at the duck tail decal freshly applied....

She's looking the ducks nuts cobber.

Hmmm one of those for P5 Classic racing would be bloody fun

Thanks Dave. I'll probably try and do the same with either the tank or the duck tail as the paint on both of these still look half decent in places.

I'd still like another Katana 1000 or 1100 Gos...if that,s not possible perhaps a 1980 GSX1100 E.
