My pal, Kev painted the case on his 74 Eldo. I was skeptical at first.
Since
 all the chrome was gone on the bike he blackened everything out. Frame got
a
 metallic black, sheet metal got regular black, tank panels got the same
blk
 as the frame. Everything is offset very nice, blk pipes even. looks like a
funky military bike. Looks bad-ass. We'll see how it holds up, paint
already
 peeled due to a gas leak, easily fixed though. Try to get pics to Dave
this
 week, Still has no belt cover-slacker-
Kev

I know this isn't really Loopframe related, but what do you all think of
the
new Jackal replacement?

http://webbikeworld.com/Moto-Guzzi-motorcycles/moto-guzzi-california-stone.

 I kind of like the tank badges, and blacked out engine cases. The color
schemes are, well, uh, different. And with such catchy names as "Porphyry
Gray." I'm just wondering what marketing genius decided to call their new
model "The California Stone" ???!!!
Most companies try and come up with vehicle names that sound exotic, have
some pizzaz or sex appeal and/or suggest power, speed, or motion. None
of
 
 these are qualities generally associated with the typical large piece of
rock.
Its on the official Guzzi site,
http://guzzi.powerhouse.it/eng/california_jac.html, so apparently they
are
 
 serious about this.
