Hi all,
So the bike is slowly getting put back together and we are still finding new problems will every part we put back on the bike haha
but were hoping to have it running at the bulla ride.... and hopefully it won't break before i can complete a lap hahaha
i would post progress photos but I'm not sure which site to use now that photobucket isn't an option.

« on: June 30, 2017, 08:01:28 am »I tried looking through my old receipts but couldn't find the exact details. For the 83-84 XR's, they had a really nice red. I am pretty sure it's what they call the orange. It's not a dark red, it's an orange red.. Here is my maier orange front mudguard.
I thought that might be the case, ill order some in the next few weeks
and thats a nice XR500

« on: June 29, 2017, 03:43:21 pm »You have to do a bit of homework for your individual model, but the maier front guard for my 1983 xr500r was perfect fit, exact replica, glossy and colour was perfect match to my Oem panels.
In the Maier brand rear guards for my model they only have the colour option as orange? i wonder if that would match as they arnt exactly the deepest red plastics, so maybe they are classified as orange but im worried it might turn up ktm orange haha

So we picked the frame up from the sandblasters yesterday to then take to the powder coaters and while walking out of the sandblasters my dad bumped into his mate who custom paints cars and bikes for a living, so he took the frame instead because he has specialized paints that are as thick as powder coating,and he knows all the dos and dont with the bolt threads and etc, so hopefully we will get it back next week and ill post so progress photos

« on: June 27, 2017, 12:21:23 pm »Get yourself the maier plastics if u can... https://maier-mfg.com/dirt.html?cat=33 They are brilliant quality. You don't need to do any prep for your frame except fix your rust hole. I just took a shitty frame to the powder coasters in wa. About $180 to blast, prime and gloss black. They did all the prep and taping off. Frame looks new. I just tapped the threads when I got it back...
ok ill have a look at them
personally i would prefer old ones with a little wear but i cant find any ahahah
and yeah, hopefully dropping it off to be sand blasted this week, and then might have to do some welding as the sub frame has a small rust hole and the main frame has a small hole that looks like its happen after taking a very heavy hit somewhere along the line, so after the sand blasting we can see the extent of the damage.. which will hopefully be very minimal haha
