My completed Tonti project. It started life as a 1979 V1000 G5. After a year of disassembly and reassembly this is how it came out....

Here's how it started out....

And fantastic to say the least... nice job. With that tank alone, it *almost* makes me want to do another project. My SS was recently sold, and now shares space in the same garage as E.M.'s bikes here in L.A.;

This is how I bought it ('02 Stone);

Looks veeerrrryyy sweet WCB. What is the paint?? I'm using a red fine metalic on black and was worried it would not have enough fire seems yours is very subtle and looks great.

The color was originally going to be a House of Kolor candy paint, but the cost for the paint alone, let alone the actual cost of spraying it was prohibitive.

I'll tell you a secret, but don't tell anyone else....


The black cherry metallic color on the project bike is....





a Chevrolet color.




Much less expensive, much easier to apply and touch up down the road.

More info, more info please(!). About the shade I'm looking to paint my revived (ex-Bui) Norge.

 

[WitchCityBallabio]

I'll call the painter and get the paint code and official name of the GM color.

I love that bike Hal, and it was my inspiration for my project.

Am I mistaken, or are those new exhaust pipes? Are those Bub Conti's?

Hey, I have seen that tank....

You bike now looks fabbo. What tank is that?

 

[WitchCityBallabio]

The new tank or the old tank?

The new tank is from HT Moto in Germany.

The old tank was the original G5 tank.
