Title: First Ride!
Post by: Celli on April 18, 2011, 08:06:50 AM
Just had my first ride for this year! While riding I discovered how much I have missed this....
I have this bike for 5 years now with 7,000 km.....
This year more rides and probably just two mods: Different color of the rearspring and hopefully a smashing exhaust (still waiting for .....  ;) )
So, not so many posts from me.  [beer] Celli

I know. Working on it! Temperature at the moment is nice.
Wondering what is the best way to change the color of the rearspring....

Powdercoating them is common.

Beautiful bike! It's a shame that it has been ridden so little. Get out and enjoy that Duc!

Is a rearspring not too 'flexible' for powdercoating?!?

[laugh] [laugh] [laugh] Really?

WP Suspension offer a very nice titanium spring.

Where and when will it be on display in Italy? (or is that your paintings?)
