JeRkY's New Project (Roberts Dogs wotsits)

[JeRkY]

I am tempted...but I love the detail of the current paint. And lets face it who does fancy paint jobs when getting a respray these days (other than Rody!)

I think it would be un economical to ever get anything quite so flashy done these days, as such I am moving more and more to preserving it.

If I ever come to sell the bike then yeah, it will probably go Black & white

I told you it would look good after a clean and polish .

I actually like the look of the chrome forks now too!, just been onto Bob jacksons to enquire how much it would cost to have them re-plated.

I think it should be made law that all DB's are painted black and white.

Why? They were available in a number of different colours when new.

I quite like the red on mine.

And I really love the panit on this one. Should look even better when the top tube sticker has been replaced with a Roberts one.

Seek and ye shall find!

Sorry, its one I had on file...not the best close up. It is a Royce ti

I am really loving the paint job now! Just looking at ways to carefully remove the name & "personal trainer" decals.

So you don't want people to think your fit? You may get hired? Wants wrong with being a personal trainer?

IMO should leave the frame that colour. Rare. Never seen a DB like that. And it is its original colour. Just a shame the stem is so long

Its loving it, trying to get it out as much as possible while the trails are still dry.
