I was doing maintenance work this winter & decided to strip her all the way down, disassembly the luggage & have her repainted. What do you think?

Wow!, looks great in white! Well done! Now maybe a bit of pinstriping?

Same thoughts I had..pin-stripping would really look good!

Did you get rid of the reflectors on the side storage?

I say put some big black letters on it, like (Your choice here, PD)
You could call it the LTP model
Looks very nice. Very clean.

Clear turn signal lenses would prolly look good on her also!

Thanks Guys,
I'm really happy with the result!
I've had it out a few times & have gotten lots of questions/complements about the bike. Most people think it is new...LOL. New; with 65,000 miles on her.

And a big thank you to all the information & help I got on this forum. And, Yes I am a paying member

Looks like he tinted the headlight and maybe the clear turn lenses also.

Both your bikes look great in white.

Looks great! Do it yourself?

I disassembled everything & brought it into a paint shop.
1 coat primer
3 coats white basecoat (Toyota 040: Ultra White)
3 coats of clear

I do like the clear turn signal lenses. Where did you get those???

I can't claim any of the credit for mine...I bought it this way with clear turn signals and all. I've had quite a few surprised that it wasn't a new bike too...bought this '99 in 2011 with 63K on it.

 

[jwacree]

It's not finished but, you can tell where I'm goin with it.

 

[southern_nj]

+1 on the clear turn signal. It will look a lot cleaner too. BTW, the bike looks great in white!!!!

 

[jwacree]

Thanks, I even went a step futher. I painted the housing white, then I frosted the clear lens, then I found led bulbs that are white when off. The lens really are white when off and they light up a soft yellow.
