Wondering if we could combine our energy and knowledge in to one place? I'd love to know if if any one has had restoration issues and how they resolved them. I have query on paint color on another thread but still waiting on that.
It's common knowledge the Grey color and 7 Yellow rings is what the bike is all about. Without getting in to the story or theory behind the yellow rings I want to know what guys have done to preserve them.
I have a project on my hands with my newly acquired bike.
The good: 2 Yellow rings on the Gas tanks
2 Yellow rings on the Rocker covers
The Bad Yellow ring on the Key Switch on the dash panel. Looks like a silverfoil backed type decal? anyway its missing
Primary inspection cover, Yellow Ok but the rest of the cover is pitted? Don t know how this should've looked from the factory? Chrome or brushed finish,? Please advise
Cam Cover, same as above
Thoughts,ideas all and any input/suggestions welcome
