lol...exactly...the swingarm is probably going to be black by the time spring gets here. much of what's silver will get blacked out with maybe a little valve cover highlight and fins in gold engine paint or metalcast yellow....haven't decided...that's the beauty of loving to paint...nothing matters much if you don't like it...just redo it.

it's easy to overdo the gold...i will probably leave the wheels the way they are.
at most, the already stripped parts will be yellow metalcast for an anodized gold-look, but the black centers will stay.
work in progress, stay tuned!
