Is the carb sprayed or just bead blasted?

If sprayed what colour is it called, looks very nice.

They are "wetblasted" I'm not sure if thats the proper English word for it, but sort of sandblasting combined with water. I also really like it but its not cheap; 4 carbs would be around 80-100 euro's

Called Aqua blasting over here. We know exactly what you mean, shame as the colour is nice and very standard looking.

Posh places call it vapour honing.  :)

Hallo Ruben, nice to see yet another fellow countryman here, as mentioned before very nice people and a lot of knowledge to be found here.
But did you know there is also an excellent Dutch club dedicated to these bikes?
Also very nice people, etcetera, and with activities a bit closer to home ;) , for instance a yearly clubcampingweekend.
Do try www.cbfourclub.nl and maybe become a member there too?
