[QUOTE="Uchytil, post: 1371537, member: 43803"] That's a nice bike to start with. I restore Maicos and have had to have paint matched, and mixed, by a shop. I was lucky enough to have a chip off the frame where it was still new looking (under the gas tank/seat. The shops scan the chip and mix accordingly. For all my parts I have a bead blaster but you can do everything with wire wheels and sandpaper if that's your budget. Since my bikes are riders I stay away from powder. It's tough but when damaged harder to repair. With an expansion chamber I can retouch a ding and you'd never know it was done (with high temp paint). I just use high temp black off the shelf rattle can. You certainly do have options for the pipe. There's unlimited coatings that handle the heat of a 2 stroke. I've toyed with a works pipe/no paint idea also. If it's a show bike powder may be the way to go on everything$$$. [/QUOTE]
