    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi guys does anyone know the paint codes for silver engine and black frame paint on 1982GS850GL and any helpful advice when doing it
Thanks
 
Yes, VHT Universal Aluminium for the engine and Black Killrust or Taubmans Fiddley bits for the frame
 
So I got the head barrels and rocker cover painted in VHT aluminium not sure it's the Finnish I want ??
silver looks ok but not sure it will look so good on the crankcase ?? it's very different to the original remaining paint on the block so I've ordered some VHT Gloss Black think that may look better on the whole engine with the side casings polished and the fins filed off ??
Anyone else painted the whole engine ??
Will try post a pic
