1- nothing would ever get done 2- I'd have an existential crisis about which to ride for the rest of the day 3- switch #2 for #1 |

Hemi orange. I built this one back around 2006? All paint, no stickers, and you couldn't feel any of the paint lines with your fingers. Flawless paint from 1" away. Labor of love is was.
*Fun fact, my right arm was in a cast when i squirted the Shoei helmet, so I had to mask and paint it with only my left hand, which was definitely challenging! In the second picture there's a bonus orange TS1 DL 200 Lambretta in the background. YEE HAW! ![]() ![]()

I agree with birbs the whole body should be citrus. I have no offerings because Greasy has my old citrus and posted it already.

It used to be so sunny with a lovely lemon paint job. Maybe I should have left well enough alone...
