has anyone got a link to suzuki paint codes, by any slim chance?

yeah, im doing 1100L in blue white, 750 in white with the blue stripes. i found a couple more slabby tanks that needed done, 750 flat top tank and a 1100 humper. ive got my busa streetfighter to do too, but waiting till subframes done etc and everythings trial fitted etc. . its gonna be a bit more custom, should be nice, pearlescant white, and candy blue and red, im looking forward to doing it tbh.

well, tectonic plates move faster, but a bit of progress. these felt like they tookforever to prep, on had some green coloured primer, which was an utter c*nt to get off, presumably an etch of some sort. . these went back to metal, and ive almost prepped 2 slabby tanks too. they will get done tomorrow, if the weather holds

boiling water will get rid of the molasses....ask me how i know lol yeah good luck with this, whats the plan? tune it to the moon and let him rip? is it a gp100? that was my first (legal) road bike, i wont mention the z650 i used to run around on for a couple of years.

i was just wondering how you are going to fix it to the fibreglass, thats all?

actually this type i was thinking about, but they look different to the original post pic

are you putting mesh in it? if so, whats the plan

the carriers look like spondon, of that era.

im half way through stripping 5 gsxr tanks, kinda losing the will to live. ive prepped 2 slabby ones, a 11 and 750, properly, underneath too...... one of the others has been primed with some green coloured primer/filler which the normally lethal paint stripper is struggling to get through, ive christened it......."that c*nting tank" wish i had a shot blaster.... FML...

oh lots of paint stripper, many hours sanding, filling , prep, etch primer, adhesion promotor for plastics, then primer, silver, marbeliser, black, white and many coats of candy red paint, with a few rolls of fineline thrown in for good measure. and 4 or 5 coats of clear and lots of blocking. but it was worth it, i treated her to new tank badges too, because...........because shes worth it. i even did a small tank in the same scheme, no idea why, other than, because it was there

see another dissatisfied customer on fb demanding a refund following many false promises/ non existent delivery dates. He blocked the guy, after relieving him of 7 grand, worraknob.

but i prefer my own design tbh

i like this blue candy one.

thanks Tony, ive managed to source a set of new, but unused ones about 40 mile away, which is a bit of a result. cheers anyway, mkight be useful for anyone else looking.

hi, im looking for contact detailsfor LPM who make reproduction EFE side panels. ANy ideas, their website is down, but i dont think he does "computers", proper old skool. but hopefully he does phones, if anyone has his number id appreciate it, need another set for a project. pic for attention thanks

and me,looks much better than guilarri ones, imho

if it has 320mm discs its 2014-2016, if its 300mms its later

i hate anoraks....they are frustrated auditors or accountants, or just general know it all wankers, not bikers.

ill happily take the sheeps cash............ i used to really love the black n silver scheme too, but blue white is traditional gsxr colours, the only issues i have with doing the blue white is that my seats are black, not blue. But in the real world im sure no one will be bothered if the seats are black, will they? the only problem will probably be getting me to sell it once its done

thanks for the feedback. Think ill go standard colours, blue and white being most popular. My favourite standard scheme is undoubtedly the 1100L blue white, but this is just a little seven fifty, so the 3 blues, with proper decals. if i was keeping it id use pearls and metallics but standard is the winner. Still need to finish stripping the tank....took them to the powder coater who said he could blast them, but he didnt have the right media, apparently, so he gave them back....bah....and the aqua blast man wants too much money (50 a tank, pfffttt, hes obviously never heard of my legendary tightness, ive got 5 to do)

quick question. ive a slingshot 750L and its almost ready for paint... now im not keeping this, im gonna flip it, so am thinking ill get a better price if i put it back to standard paint? or would i? so choices are as follows, im leaning toward standard colours, because if i do something custom i'll want to keep it, and ive got allready got 3 1100s.. so you lot can decide, remember, most return ££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££ blues/white std black silver std. pepsi skoal minolta HB other suggestion whats the most desirable combination? cheers

got any pics?
