Great link! As you can see I just picked up my cb so all this stuff is still new to me.

Gold is what I had in mind! Not some chicano flake but rather a smooth mica like asian 22k gold.

Looking good! Do I see a chrome swingarm? Sweet. Mine was too and I just sent it out to be rechromed at Brown's plating.

I'll be at the mercy of the powder coater, but I'm hoping for a "asian gold 22k" as well to blend with the gold leaf on the tank, which is also 22k.

The powder coater thinks they can do it and suggested a slight metallic, which i would accept, like the very fine metallic in most modern auto finishes.

I suspect it is a CHEEZ-O replicUGH  of the PETRALI bike, that set a record in 36.

 I think its from them that build little bikes with them Knock-off motors patterned after Honda singles..

 Might be Hu Flung Dung  Co , or something like that.. ???
