I am not going to be much help here because:
A. I got a NOS police tank at Daytona last year and so I am just having
the fenders, toolboxes, battery covers and headlight shell painted.
Matching the candy red on the tank to the toolboxes and battery covers
was a bitch.
B. I never ask my painter how much until it's time to pay him. He does
excellent work, and I know it, and I know he's fair.
As a point of reference, he did my T3 a few years back, which was just
tank and LeMans I rep. sidecovers, in candy gold, and charged me
$325.00. Well worth it if you've ever seen the bike.

followup question for y'all -- I'm sure it's geographical dependent, but what are folks paying for a paintjob these days? tank, two fenders, two sidecovers, maybe a bit of cleanup and panel beating? |
