The horn cover looks a bit crappy in the pic but it just needs a bath.

This is proof that you secretly want a black rocket slowly but surely painting parts haha
those bits are metal so i might take them to the powdercoaters TC mentioned

Lonzol might be in bed or at work by now,
but it started life out as a harley fairing.
The detail on Blackie has to be seen to be believed.
notice the back rim says Rocket III?
Lon's a fireman and the firemen's Maltese cross is everywhere on Blackie...
Down to having them on the valve stem caps...
Did I mention the detail has to be seen to be believed???

No secret mate - I would love mine to be black - or even a decent (ie deeper and darker)maroon than the dirty plum colour Triumph used. In some light mine looks great but other times it's, I'm very sad to say, a bit dull. I admit it; I have "black envy". Given the cost of a full respray I need to look at more progressive blackening and will be powder coating bits over time - just the spray can was a quick and effective temp job.

Funny .. yesterday i was talking to one of the members up from Sydney at Life&Deaths tattoo show , he has a claret red rocket . 12 months ago he was going to have it painted black and i talked him out of it, told him nearly every rocket you see is black and that i reckon the red paint/black motor looks neat.Anyway since then he has had his bike repainted but the painter couldn't quite match the red. Mate told him to just go ahead and do the best he could... bike came back just about PINK !!!
