Not your colour or bike (750 K1), but an example of Menno's work from another very satisfied customer.

Yep, have had plenty of paint sets for Honda SOHC/4's done by Menno, always excellent work and a Master at early Candy colours and hand painted stripes.

I had my 500k0 Candy Jet Green paintwork done by Menno and it's really good and not the easiest of candy colours to get right.
I also know that Andrew Parnaby has painted a brown candy/black set of 500/4 paintwork and he is near Tadcaster North Yorks.

This was done by a local guy who sprays cars - but he's gone walk about (I believe he's been playing away with the associated personal edet fittfamily trauma) and not contactable at the moment - £150 labour plus I supplied paint - its my spare set not fitted

Base coat, top coat and lacquer?, if so that was a bargain as well.
Yep, all 3 coats - its available on the link on ebay for £82 - got it off Dave for £60 as he'd bought it in error and advertised it on the forum

PM send to discuss options .. I don't really want to express opionions on here about the comparative quality of  painters we discuss on here ..it's not really fair to them.
