alton, frame and motor were powdercoated the motor was done with satin clear over tahitian red PC (no longer available)  I did the tank with rattle cans from vintage iron I think. I do plan on racing this after all thats what there for! restore race rebuild race. I think if you get sample paint from rattle can you could have a paint shop mix a match for you the motor was a flat finish from the factory thanks, Craig
