Title: Hello!
Post by: Idh on Monday, 08 April 2024, 05:40 PM
Just looked at my profile and I last posted on here in 2018.
So just saying hello again!

Decided its time to rebuild my K5. Not been riding for a few years and she is very tired looking.
So, here she is in all her glory  :lol:

Frame gone far blasting and powdercoating, tank and plastics gone to paint hopefully all back in a week or two, then the fun starts!

This was her before I started.
Tank was dented and scratched, plastics had some nicks and scratches, so decided to go all out.
Keeping the paint original.

I keep saying I'll do the same to mine, once it reaches 250k miles...
