I like it, colour and bike looks good.

Glad you weren't tempted by the local Towie orange spray tan colour so popular these days :P

Yeah go for it ...... its RAL 7022 IN MATT ,... it paints very light gray ,.... but drys darker ,... because it is matt it has the polymers in for drying ,.. so is thicker and more user friendly

Where did you get the paint from?
I'll not be doing anything with mine till the weather gets a tad drier, it's currently soaking wet and gales up here and has been for weeks but if I can do a bit of price checking in the meantime...
