CB750 case paint question
« on: April 02, 2012, 01:02:50 PM »
This is a picture of a CycleX engine. I really like the case paint but don't know what it could be. I called Ken at CycleX  and he doesn't know either. It's not powder coat. I'm wondering if anyone had an idea of what this paint might be.

'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

  OK I'm sticking my neck out here especially since the guy at cycle-ex didn't know but I recall seeing on the old cycle-ex website that the case paint on their turn key motors was a Cadillac engine enamel.
