Thanks mate she’s coming on good :) I’m hoping to make some more progress soon unfortunately my dads been diagnosed with stage 3+ prostate cancer so put a halt on the classic stuff for a while slowly getting back to it :)
@@savingclassicmotorcycles I'm really very sorry to hear that mate, i hope very much he keeps his strength up and hangs on in there. I lost my Dad 16 year ago, and like your old man, he was old school. They're tougher than what you might think, never give up mate..stay safe.
Thanks mate means a lot sorry to hear about your old man to, all fingers crossed he’s just waiting on an operation then it’s radio therapy so least there’s something to aim for. You to mate
I'm very curious to know how you painted the chrome parts: the handlebars and especially the exhaust pipe. This one interests me because it's already very difficult to paint chrome but even more so on a part that rises to a very high temperature. I also have a Norton 16H, which has been in its original state since an old restoration. It drives very well but eventually I would like to give it back its military livery. (It's a W frame). I really like the Chocolate color. Is this a painting that exists or did you have it made from a sample?
Hi Xavier thanks for taking the time to reply :) my bars were in bare metal and the same for the exhaust. You can get chrome removed. I used a paint which was the closest thing for the silver bits to Cadium plating that I could find. The Scc2 brown is an actual colour :) mine was one another enthusiast had matched from console inside a tank and was referred to as farrant brown at war paint. If I was to do it again although the 15% eggshell is harder wearing I'd get it in a matt. It's important to use red oxide underneath for the correct base. Two websites that are super worth checking out are wdnorton.nl and wdbsa.nl the forum on the BSA one is brilliant and Robs Norton website is full of an unbelievable amount of information there's also a book on them called British forces motorcycles in the back of the book is all the contract lists and frame number ranges you can work out what the original census number was and year and this will tell you which of the different colours it should be there was a few through the years! :) an I think that's always an important detail to get right we also found lots of original bits of paint on the bike which I show throughout the video. well worth getting involved on the forum though its a brilliant place and full of very knowledgeable people.
