Thinking about this one. Almost ready to start on it.

Going to do it just like the white one. Very US spec with the pod turn signals.

On the color. I'm curious if anyone knows if the P200 burgundy and the Rally one are the same.

I can't find a paint code on the P200 burgundy. I think it might be a US-only color, and a bit lighter than the Rally. The Rally one is Amaranto 835.

But it could be the same, and different paint that aged differently.
I'm thinking of doing it like this one.

The P200 burgundy. It's similar but somehow nicer.

About paint. Joe from Second Chance scooters has a guy he uses who does an exquisite job for 3kish.. When you are ready I could ask....also up here in the north bay the guy who did mine did a very good job (passable), just doubt he will do it again for 700 bucks!

I ended up paying close to that. The paint shop was $2200, and the paint was $300. And I did all the prep myself.

I went to a place called Fastlane Relics, which is the only local shop that mixes Glasurit paint. And the paint shop was one they referred.

The one Second Chance uses is in Tracy, I believe. They do nice work.
