H1 paint

I decided the old grouch needed tarting up!

If it's worth doing at all it's worth over-doing.

Did you use one of Rick Brett's decal kits ?  I have a 350 and a 400 triple I need to get to someday for a face lift.Hope to find a 500 and a 750 around sometime but they are getting thin around here nowadays,maybe because Rick is just up north here when not across the pond ;)

Here is a pic of my 350 and 400 on the days that I got them.Have not taken any good ones since.I have the 400 cleaned up and the airbox,sidecovers,new tires etc installed and have put around 100 road miles on it.Less than 2,000 miles on it when found at a very good price. The 350 has been cleaned up,roll bar removed etc and started up and just rode in my parking lot.I really like its Duct Tape seat  :D  Lotsa a work someday to make them purdy again.  Rather put the time and $$ into one of their big brothers.

Don't underestimate the S2s and S3s. From what I've heard they're better all-rounders than the bigger ones. I have a lot of S3 parts if you're missing any.
