Very nice mate. I had one those BITD but the standard one not the CC version in white with green parts and green skyways. It was lovely to ride 8)
-
Starting to look good mate ... I think those violet decals will really show it off :4_17_5: ( sacrilege to many but if it's what you want Brett it will work really well )
-
Looking good mate :daumenhoch:

Lilac isn't my cup of tea... :-[
But it's Looking good Brett :daumenhoch:

Beautiful Brett.... :daumenhoch:

nice bike Bretty :daumenhoch:
the different shades of purple would affect my OCD but I know that getting a match on these must be impossible. have you tried it with a chrome post?
-
Nice Brett, I know you've wanted one of these for ages.
I love lilac/lavender parts on bikes from this era, for me it was the definitive time for us as it really gave us the chance to put out own look to a bike, rather than just standard black/blue/red/gold parts that were around. Pink/green/orange/lavender rocked in '85.
For me, if it were mine, and it's not, I'd ditch the black parts for chrome or polished.

The will be lost. It was just the parts I pulled off a DP.
