Hi,
The motherin-law has bought a new car so I have been told to "get that bike back together" Yeah !!! :2thumbsup:
Apart from getting a rolling chassis there is the paint work to do.
On this I have a couple of questions...
The paint on the cockpit was flaking badly as in I could flick some of it off with my nails. I've now rubbed it down, only leaving the paint that had really stuck. I just want to make sure that the primer is not the cause of the flaking paint, if it is do I have to rub all that off too? The primer seems to be stuck to the paint underneath, the paint was not stuck to it though... it looked like this:

Then there is the small matter of the scrapes on the side... Any clues how to solve this, they are not too deep, but there is a few of them:

Edit: Gave up on trying to put images in line...
Cheers
James
