    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.

Looking for Painter

I would like to repaint my 650G this year and I am looking for someone who can do the original paint. I also have a set of decals, OEM, but don't worry they are not 30 years old. My bike has the maroon color with gold specs and it's what I want to duplicate. I've always liked the color and it looks great in the sun.

I know there are more than a few professional painters on this forum, I'm hoping someone can do a stock paint job for a fair price.

The local body shops either want to do the paint their way (You don't really want that original color with gold specs, do you kid?) or else they don't like to do motorcycle tanks. The Harley shops turn their noses up at Jap Crap. In short, I just don't trust them to do it right. I'd rather have a true GSer do it.

I have a small dent or two that needs repair, I could probably take care of it but maybe it's best left to someone that knows what they are doing. Painting is not one of my skill sets and I have neither the proper tools nor work area to do it properly.

Contact me by PM if you are interested.
 
Duane..look at the pics Dale posted a few weeks ago of tanks i had at his place. The skunk tank was the maroon you speak of. If thats the color you want Dale can send you the tinting mix, or i can make a copy from the can i have and send it to you snail mail. Thread name is FRESH PAINT! Posted by Rustybronco.

I'd be glad to do your parts. Motorcycles are all I do. Feel free to check out my work at www.meticulouspaint.com. It would be factory correct but it would look even better then it did when it left the factory, guaranteed.
