I didn,t etch prime the cylinders, the VHT paint I used advised not to use a primer. I have looked at the instructions on quite a few VHT poaints and they all dont recommend priming. I,m assuming that by primer that includes etch primer too. I have used a few different paints on cylinders and not etched them first , and to date none of them have peeled or flaked in use.

...You could start by getting the lawn mower out....

I've been staring at your bike pics for ages...I really like it.

You would think I was odd if I said I think it would look quite good with some big round MZ type winkers, or some seventies types on chrome stalks...Pretend I never said that..

I'm new here and i've just read this entire thread, that bike is totally stunning! What a beautiful restoration. How do you bear parting with them after so much love and car?

That's it, Mr Gazza has solved my problem of what to restore next, it has just got to be the lawn mower, and the frame is already Rosso Red.
