New Paint for my 400/4 Cafe Project

(1/4) > >>

Inspiration taken from the 1960's Team Lotus F1 livery seen here with the late, great Jim Clark in action at Brands Hatch.


Paint used is correct for period - I unearthed the Lotus paint codes 8)

Tank badges are new OE Honda parts sourced from the US of A.




I am still waiting for the seat unit due to minor blemishes seen in the new paint.

Normally custom paint jobs - I can take them or leave them, but I've got to say that looks absolutely fantastic. Great choice.

I popped round Rob's today and had a look at the paint while I was there and have to say it's a top job.

Mirror finish and no orange peel.I was going to use him to do my paint but it's just confirmed the decision.

K2-K6:
Looks really good Rob, guess it's the last non comercial colours they used before going to the "Gold Leaf" livery as more sponsorship came in.

I saw a Triumph thruxton in the same just a month ago at a sunday bike meet and that also looked good in a cafe style.

The finish does look good even in the photos, a nice job.

Seat collected this afternoon.  Sorry for the poor colour quality, my camara can't cope with difficult lighting conditions.
