The guy I bought my '84 RC15 from does painting for a living. This was an originally RED RC15 and when he got it, he removed all the RED fairing...
Ok great - good stuff. Another question.....what do you do to get the part cleaned off of everything before painting? Blow off with air...

Nice! Could probably get it for $3,300......cash in hand......
Had something good happen today. Had already planned to go to my storage unit and replace a couple batteries. Just for the heck of it, before...
