"As you
can guess, the paintjob on this one was a real challenge to get right!
Before restoration the frame and forks were in a real mess - it truly amazed me
what a bit of elbow grease and spray paint can do!
I received the decals through an eBay deal, the pedals came from Germany whilst
the wheels, tyres, seat and brakes came from the US. I feel that the
Skyway mags finish the bike off better than the old steel wheels.
Working with as many of the original components as possible, I spent a long time
preparing the surfaces before even considering applying any paint. The end
result completely exceeded my expectations! The choice of white paint used
for the base was far superior than the white I used on my Team Burner - you live
and learn. After completing this paint job I feel that I could take on
just about any Burner resto'..!"
