    guys i think i will use vapour blasting services on carbs, engine cases, brembo calipers and some other parts to make it look mint condition. and price is reasonable.

    i saw some photos and i like how it looks.

    @NINJA @Calum its possible to powder coating the calipers? i want the original gold colour on them.

    @pedrobatista10 yes they can be powder coated, seek out a local firm and ask their advice.

      @Calum I thought that was the case, I'd be checking the powervalves carefully as I know on the Suzuki's there prone to failing and dropping the power valve into the cylinder, ouch!

          hi

          i will send my carburetors and brembo calipers to rebuild to "MHF Restoration Macclesfield Cheshire" in UK. they do amazing jobs in restauration projects.

          anyone used this company before?

            Can't say that I have. But I have never needed a carb being rebuilt before.

                Absolutely savage!

                I literally could only afford to do this to one bike, let alone two!

                Fair play.

                Looking smart bud.
