I damaged my tank last year on some ice, it's just gone in for repainting k4 B&W I was getting quotes of 5-600 for the tank repairing and repainting so I'm going for a slightly different colour option,  painter said it's all the different pearl colours that make it so expensive.

£600? if my quotes come back that sort of price either i will leave the dent as a battle scar or buy a new one !!

Quote from dream machine - repair and repaint complete tank £360 - Waiting for quote from Ace in Bristol - sourced a new K6 tank for £600  decisions decisions !!

Guarantee that Ace will be cheaper than Dream Machine. His work is faultless too. He's 100% perfectionist

Oh, and def cheaper than £600 for a new tank

The one thing you may want to check with Ace is whether they use transfers on the tank or not. Dream Machine don't use them but air brush them instead I believe (but do check)

If either need a set of tank transfers I have a set of K7 tank transfers you can have - that's if you want yours to look like a K7 of course!

Any thoughts on maybe having the side panels sprayed to match the tank?

Ace will airbrush the logo's on if you ask him to..He did my Bandit for me..

got a quote from Froudy's mate Ace in Bristol for a repair and respray my tank in K2 style ( but K5 blue ! ) for £250 which is a good price and only an hours drive from Cardiff , will take Mrs Notty so I don't pay for the bridge with her blue badge but then I guess the cost of a shopping visit to Bristol many cost more than the tank !

Well done Froudy & Notty.  Yeeesss, the shopping trip gonna cost, still, happy wife, happy life.

[froudy]

That's a good price Notty..As you said , local too
Glad I was able to point you in the right direction.

Have you looked at Ace's site? He does Motorheads guitars for them.

PS..Hope the shopping trip with Mrs Notty doesn't cost you too much

Bit of a dig up. But my Katana has a sharp single dent in the side of the tank and it does my head in. I was going to use one of those paintless dent removal companies that do the rounds. They will put one of their formers inside the tank through the filler and hammer it out slowly with their special tools. Should be easy to do. Will need paint of course as yours is split. Did you get it sorted??
