White gold in the sun

Tim · 13th May 2012, 12:06

After moaning about my beige tourer when its dull, thought I would correct this by taking some pictures in the sunshine.

I've got some refurb'ed 16 spoke 18" to go back on.

When I look at mine from the bedroom window (strangely, I often do this), at certain times of the day, usually evening, it looks like duotone, lighter gold above the doors, the rest darker. I can't get my camera to reproduce this, unless I risk certain death by leaning out at a precarious angle...

I've just spent all day cleaning and polishing my new to me 75 so I went to have a look how it was this cloudy overcast evening. Not as good as in the sun earlier but still looks good to me.

I used something called Formula 4000...supposed to be trade only (apparently) but it did the job despite my current inherent blemishes. Just over 20 quid for a GALLON too and that's a lot of 500ml bottles!

Nice Xenons but your number plate is only half finished I See. Mine has numbers and letters

. I wish you guys would stop giving me ideas! Pic below is an old one btw and not one of my sparkly new finish.

Found another place the colour looks good. Night light

James.uk · 29th July 2012, 00:28

I don't like the look of those lights, but I need to see better at night. So I am after some projectors as well..
