I feel your pain Tony 
 
 hence....why on my '78 RS400C cheapo bitsa project (I ditched the RS100 idea 

) I have only this morning generously applied a beaut coat of el'cheapo satin black 

 end of problem 

 just need to find me an exhaust, bolt on the airbox and carb, buy a rear sprocket, couple of cables, pair of grips, a few rear spokes, a doc detail and she'll be done 

 Another one Suzuki never made that no one would have wanted 


(The guards and covers were rejects, front was chunder white, rear sun bleached red and the covers a yellow spew colour so no good vintage parts have been harmed in this project)
