With your ''disco'' paint scheme it will be worth less than a restored bike, which is worth less than a sympathetically restored bike, which is worth less than a original bike, all the glib unsubstantiated comments in the world will not change that Sunshine. The fact that you powder coat, and rate it speaks volumes. Try doing it properly one day. Like the old adage goes, ''a fool and his money are soon parted'' ;)

I love your comments, not sure why you decided to pick on me but feel free, have often been told that by living in the city that I deprive a village of a good idiot. I must say though it's not me or my standards your undermining in line with custom painters or powder coaters but the professionals doing the job (although I am responsible for color choice), me I am just the mechanical, electrical and labor element of the builds that I do. I wish you all the best in your KZ project and look forward to the questions you may pose going forward, however best you ignore advise that this fool may have to offer, this is only the 5th complete re-build on a Z13 I have done which includes all mechanical and electrical elements of these bikes. $1600 for a paint job is day light robbery my first bit of advice is shop around it's only one color with some decals on it, If you want a perfect color match go to RS Paints in the UK.

Like i said, unsubstantiated comments , im not in the UK, so yet again, your comment has no bearing whatsoever.

As for picking on you, you shouldnt judge others by your own measure. Me, i just have little time for unsubstantiated comments, which seem to be your stock in trade.

Are you really that arrogant? You have no idea where i am, or what the prices are, you get what you pay for when it comes to paint, but then again how would you know, you think powdercoat is the right way to fly on a classic. Do us both a favour and keep your unsolicited "advice" to yourself, please and thank you.
