Experimenting with some candy apple blue, to get the right effect I’m looking for. Gas tank needs some work but the inside is rust free luckily. Have not found the exact combo I’m going to use yet, but have a better idea which direction to go now. I want it to look basically original, but stand out in the sun like my CBX I did some years back.

One panel has some pearl over the basecoat but under the candy to see what difference it makes overall.

I think I’m going with this look….with the covers polished like the hubs.

Next step is to totally disassemble the bike, and begin the rebuild now that I know where I’m going with it, and have enough parts for the rebuild to start.
