CB1 from Germany.

Hi Falk,

that blue is beautiful, much like the original blue mine is, but somehow more brilliant.

Whose colour is it?

thanks,
Aaron

Kawasaki had a very similar colour called "Bermuda Blue", I had a 250 with it on many moons ago.

you are LUCKY,you have TUV only every 2 years.
in the UK we have to get an MOT(the TUV equivalent) EVERY YEAR!
just as strict as TUV i'm sure!
your CB looks great!
my question is,how did you do the white stripes?are the painted or vinyl?
since  my 1 is all black i was contemplating doing a Knight Rider theme,
using matt dark grey stripes in the same way you did the white ones.
i DON'T want to spray them on though.

SCRAP THAT QUESTION!

but i DON'T want to go down that road.

Mate the TUV makes the MoT look like a joke.

Has your bike got any non original parts? If so, have they got type approval? I dont mean an E-Mark on the exhaust, I mean have you got an actual certificate which says it is legal on your bike? Have you got the same for your fly screen? Indicators? Tyres? And that gets tricky since no makers want to pay to get their Tyres type tested on a 22 year old import.

True...
ore you pay some more money.
buy the Parts you want,
mount them drive to the TÜV , pay some extra money for the testing, then go to the registration Office pay some money to get the new Part into your papers and then you have the 2 Year Test...
You can have nearly everything her ein germany but ti costs more Time and Money than getting married... (and trsut me - i know both)

[Falk]

baaaaaaaahhhhh - I have to repaint my Tank...

while polishing it, somehow the stickers decided to not to stay on the nice blue...
I guess the Varnish was not thick enough...
