Hi S2,

Not exactly a Vintage Classic but good enough for a comparison  :D

My TS125 had the barrels powder coated but the exhaust was "Ceramic Coated", Supposed to be very durable.  Like old iron barrels 2-st trail bike exhausts seem to rust in the blink of an eye and you are forever re-spraying.  Hopefully this might last a bit longer.

British Bikes / 1966 Speed Twin - Paint advice needed
« on: February 04, 2011, 03:18:16 PM »
Hello,

Does anyone have a recommendation for the "Silver Sheene" colour as in a modern paint code or an alternative silver.

Thanks for any help

Cheers    Geoff

Hello Rex,

Yes, I do post on the "shite" CB forum  ;D.  However I can get along with all sorts, I usually only post to get or offer advice and leave the general banter (which occasionally can get contentious on any forum) to more outspoken posters.

I will certainly appreciate any tips on re-building the 500 engine as I'm not really sure what mix of parts it may contain.  With the paint bill imminent the engine will have to wait for now.

Cheers   Zunspec

Hello,

I am in the process of restoring a 1966 500 Speed Twin.  As is not unusual it seems to have 1960 T100A fitted (or at least a left hand crankcase  ;D).  Concentrating on the chassis at present as I vaguely know what I am doing there, for the engine re-build I may be asking some (read a lot) questions.
