It took a lot of work scrapping away with a scraper. Still needs a good polish up but it don't look to bad atm.

houses aren't painted round here in this shit hole of a town. If we painted it, it'll stand out like a sore thumb, and then'd you'd probably be stabbed for the house being different from the rest.

No idea what you've done to it?

Just looks like the same bike from a different angle.

yeah as MarkJ said, took the paint of the downpipes. Can't see why the previous owner decided to paint it black other than he couldn't be bothered to polish them.

Looks like you've still got the awkward bit around the collector to do!
