Bit more done, Cleaned the valve and clutch covers, undercoated and sprayed with a colour match from the starter clutch cover, I think they got a very close match

Cheers.

Hey. Awesome build, can I ask what colour you asked for on the frame and swingarm. What is the finish like in comparison to the original finish
