Before:

During:

Image
I counted at least 6 layers of paint.
Image
What the hell were you guys smoking in the 70s? It's a metallic purple ferchrisake!

After:

Image
I still maintain that it's sheer coincidence that the bike is the same color as the car. I swear!
Image
On this one you could still make out the 750 Commando logo.

Image
They will still need painted but you have to agree it's a substaintial improvement. :mrgreen:
You probably want to go into town, and find a up to date Jap Bike store,
With a full spares department, a clean workshop, and kean young mechanics.
And ask them if theres a Grumpy Old Bloke out in the Hills, who knows how to fix Real Motorcycles.

Dave whats wrong with metallic purple,I painted my 750 Atlas metallic purple. Was metallic green like my fastback when I purchased it and I did not like it at all. Those colours were all the go back then (1969) Was not over the moon with the fastback when I bought it but it was the original gel coat as it left the factory and every one else loved the colour. Like a wart it grows on you and I like the green now. :mrgreen:
