Paint job for Yamaha FZR 250?

No need to be nasty. Perhaps what he's saying is that as it was his own bike, he spent 100's of hours on it lovingly stripping and sanding it prior to applying lots of layers of paint, laquer and final waxing in he hunt for absolute perfection. I think you'll find that most of what you think are stickers on that bike is actually a bloody good paint job.

You pay peanuts, you get ..........?

Yeah Johns bike had no stickers. Even the lettering was airbrushed.Maybe exception was pure sports but that may have been airbrush also. Hes talking 3k at a paintshops rate including prep and alot of layers.

I think you will find the 900 for a basic colour paint without do rims including clear coats and cut and finished is a very good price.
When I gave him my race bike I asked for a cheap job in whatever colour he had. I think I got a bargin with that description.

Make sure with John you tell him you have 3 yellow bikes already and want something with 100% less yellow than the other 3 bikes you own or you might end up with a yellow bike.

So here's the latest update, I got a professional paint job from a local paint shop for $500 and the bike looks mint as as you guys can see in the pictures below:

Apart from the rim strips it looks the same to me.

They are all post paint pictures, I just put the rim stripes two weeks ago and the paint job was done in April 13'.. So yes they will be the same

I think he means the new paint job looks the same as the old one

Oh my bad, yes I got it done with the same color as the last one but you'll notice a big difference when you view it in person cos tegh previous owner painted it by him self and this ones done through a professional paint shop.

Hows the orange peel?

Looks like it came out alright, could do with a tiny bit of colour through it though.

Na Spent heaps already to keep it in top condition so dont wanna spend any more dosh on it and besides tomorrow will be the day when all of my efforts will pay off as I have been offered with a decent amount of dosh from a potential buyer so it'll hopefully be sold by COB tomorrow.
