K1's tank off to Menno

UK Pete:
As I told you Andrew I bought so many nos parts for the bike to do a proper restoration but after many many nights of contemplating a resto,  I decided it would be the wrong choice to mess with such a lovely survivor,

And that's why, apart from the paintset, I will be leaving it pretty much as is Pete and will enjoy riding the old girl.  :)

The danger will be when you put the lovely new paint on the bike.   ;)

Yeah, that did cross my mind - just like my cars, the best part always shows up the next worse part..........  :-\

Menno:
So I have this very nice tank here. Paint is faided and some small dents.
Nothing very worrying.

However...
Since this is the original paint. Original handpainted lining as well.
I am convinced this tank has been painted at the factory.

How difficult can painting candy ruby red be?
