Topic: Need someone to paint my bike.

[axle350]

I live in Central Illinois.  I have a 73 Honda CB750 that i want to return to its factory color. Candy Bucchus Olive.  I want as close to a factory paint job as possible.  Can anyone recommend a paint shop?  From what I've read, the paint can be hard to find also.

Did you ever find a painter?  If not and you're still looking, check out my work in the "Services Offered" page under "Got Paint?"

Hey nevr old....I have a K1 tank in good cond and new, raw side covers that I need painted, can you PM me a bid?
The color I want is Polynesion Blue, it's a rare 750 color that was also on the 450.
I've seen your work on Tweakins bikes and just incredible!

Just remember thousands of tanks have been shipped from Japan to US and beyond, no problem. Just get a tank box or something similar, it'll be fine.

I shipped mine from Indy to MD and back in a homemade box. It was fine.

I figure i've got as much risk with the tank in my shop as in a good tank box on its way to where ever.
