Gold







It's been a while since the youngsters painted the logos on the rear tires. It feels today as if it is completely out = it´s "time to show them were the cabinet should stand" (swedish proverb). The whole bike is getting more and more 70's like, to my horror and delight. 
Instead of white paint, I use poor man´s pinstriping, marker pen, a technique I already used on the tank. Searched for a yellow-brown marker all over the city before I saw a motorcycle on the exeptional blog Pipeburn. Found the answer in the text. Gold is the color. Always nice to have builders who will share their materials and ideas.
