G12 CSR headlamp shell colour.

Post by TonyMus1 »

I recently bought a 1960 G12 CSR which has been refurbished by the previous owner.

All of the bits that are meant to be Red are Red but the Headlamp shell and Chain Guard have also been painted Red !

What does the team think ?

Respray the shell and guard Black or be different as the parts looks quite good in Red.

I like the headlamp and chainguard black, but it's your bike so paint it /leave it to suit yourself. I've got my CSR done with everything black and a dark red tank with the chrome panels.

Look at http://archives.jampot.dk/technical/Tan ... transfers/ and click on the top link 'AJS & Matchless Colour Schemes'. I tried posting a direct link but error message appears.

Nice bike, Dave!
