Restoring the shine to my 1980 GS860G

Excellent work.
Surprised to recall that's what mine looked like at one time.

Thanks! and HA! Yea but if its from riding miles, then that's great.
Better to have a completely worn out bike than a perfect one that never gets ridden!

Simply beautiful! Nice work. Love the color and ditto on the black engine. But, that'll pass as is though.

SleepyC that is a very nice job. Love the paint job looks like she just rolled out of the dealership!

Yep, Great job. Silver eng. looks like it belongs there. Black eng., with that bike, may look abnormal. Congrats.

Thanks so much! I'm trying to build a booth right now. I ended up getting back into painting. Got a new turbine sprayer and all the fixings. Just need to create a heated booth so I can paint in the winter.
