Lol, pics when I start spraying etc etc, I,ve had a decal kit on order now for a fortnight so shouldnt be long before I make a start, done some sanding & filling as everything was sanded down to about 40 grade before I got the bike.

you cant get an decal kit off the shelf for the 2tk I,m getting one made from a decal shop but its not cheap, its going to cost me £75 which is a trade price as a local motorbike restoration garage (bdsmotorcycles) is friends with me but they come well reccomended by them. The paint isnt the yamaha pearl but going to be a brilliant 2k white. I,m sure it,ll look good in the end, I,ll take pics as its progressing, best part is the bike doesnt look tired & abused like most would at its age so not much needs replacing, lots of time & effort needed with the bodywork tho & everything needs a damm good cleaning.

Yep its a rep from oe decals, I sent the firm photos how they are & theyre copying them. Still havent got a single seat unit, still looking if I cant get one shoerly I,m fixing the one I have.
what parts are you needing, all I need now is the aluminium tank bracket which is rivited on the tank & seat unit.oh & a pair of oe rear indicators.
