    Paint jobs?

    What up gang?

    I'm about to get my 83gs1100e painted. I would like to know if you guys or girls can post pics of your bikes paint jobs? I'm asking because I am not sure about the color yet. I do know that I want to have some metal flake. So if we can lets get a picture gallery started. Thanks so much.

    Peace!

    He's a link to several shots of mine. ..



    The paint is Duplicolor chameleon green/purple. Many coats and much finish sanding between coats. Then it got three coats of high gloss urethane two part. Everything is rattle can, done right in the driveway.

    Prep is key.

      White with gold ice pearl. Pics just don't show it though.





      Back on bike before final clear. Which is done now. Just no pics yet.

        I'll never pass up a chance to post pics of my GS!

        Here is my '83 1100E in very close (slightly lighter, more metal flake) to the original blue color:



        And the same bike with a second set of body work in a semi-custom ESish scheme done by GSR member nvr2old:



        Thanks,
        Joe

                  Check out the custom GS thread... It's been quiet as of late and I completely forgot about it until now, but it's loaded with pics of cool custom paint and all kinds of mods. Great place to get some ideas
