Re: Body repair and "kenny Roberts" paint
Thank's Ron for asking, I will hopefully find the right yellow some day
I have done the first primer grinding and it seems that i need some more primer on some areas.
especially on those parts that needed most repair.

The first layer of paint is done.
Re: Body repair and "kenny Roberts" paint
I have just started to put on the decals, it's not easy but with some practise it's not to difficult either.
Re: Body repair and "kenny Roberts" paint
Really nice Lasse are you painting it your self?
You are absolutely right about not doing the red and white original paint scheme. May I suggest painting the frame black? I did it and its a whole different bike.
Keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing more pics.

Re: Body repair and "kenny Roberts" paint
No, i have a very good painter that do the difficult stuff.
I have done the repair, grinding between layers and the decals.
Unfortunally the frame is already painted silver so it have to stay that.
