And no-one's thought to ask how traumatised *I* am. I'm the one who had to sit and watch him being fondled roughly by nursie, then cart his wrecked carcass out of hospital and back to his place while he wasn't wearing any trousers. (jpegs and video are available) Imagine how I'm feeling right now. ****, I can't even bear the thought of closing my eyes and attempting sleep for fear the visual images will return to haunt me.

You're going to have to give me a clue Dan. I can't find anything in the header list about VFR's, the paint of such or even boy's arse's. -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19

How very odd, here it is in all it's glory: From: "Dan L" <> Date: Wed, 6 Feb 2008 20:09:56 GMT Newsgroups: uk.rec.motorcycles Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 X-Trace: individual.net 1eeOFi99EpC+vs7dQt97NA220TNXUnXJcOenh+tO9YJ4uV+IrW Xref: uni-berlin.de uk.rec.motorcycles:2114282 The boy is picking up a Cagiva Mito style rear end for his NC30 at the weekend, which will need painting. The bike is metallic blue Telefonica Movistar livery, with various decals. Roughly how much would it cost to have it painted to match the rest of the bike, complete with decals etc. by your own renowned emporium of refinishing wizardry? The rear bodywork basically extends from the back of the tank to the tail lights, incorporating the seat assembly. TIA We picked up the new tailpiece yesterday, it's not in bad nick, just one scuff.

What was the thread header? Dan, are the decals available from anywhere I can contact? Honda, being Honda, always want a chassis/frame number before they'll supply. (At least the Honda dealer near us do) The job won't be too expensive, but I've NO idea what the decals will cost and I'll have to speak to the boychic about the price, coz thats his area. I'm just the donkey I can sort that, but it'll be a **** to match if I've ONLY got the tail/seat unit because it's metallic and I don't have an adjacent panel to blend the colour into, so it WILL be obvious it's been painted if it's painted "edge to edge", because it always is. Metallic/pearl and/or mica finished panels can't be done indivdually for that reason, coz even when the paint is "matched to sample", it still varies in colour intensity/depth and if all of the panel needs paint, I've got nothing "extra" to work with in order to "lose" the variation. An adjacent panel would be good. Anyway, I'll check my emails. -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19

Yeah, but your a woman. Men don't want to see men's bits. Well not usually. -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19
It's a non standard paint job I'm afraid, so I don't reckon Honda'll be any good. The decals are the Telefonica Movistar logo in puke green, plus the number (45 or 15, I can't recall). I'll ask the boy to research where to get 'em. The boy took some snaps yesterday so I'll email them over later if that's okay. If we send it up, there's a small section at the back of the original seat unit which is detachable, so we could send that too for colour matching. Alternatively, Telefonica metallic blue could be a standard shade, but I dunno about that. As above, I can send off a small section of the tail piece and possibly one of the front fairing panels. Spent yesterday evening trying to get the cunting new bit to actually fit the bike, which eventually it did. Looks much better than the original, so the bike should look very tasty when finished. If the tailpiece ends up making the rest of the bike look tatty you may end up with a tank and fairing to paint too.
