Yeah the bike is still under warranty, just! i need to take it in this month so they can check it over n get any issues sorted before the warranty expires in sept. I didint think that the finish would be covered by warranty but il see what i can get out of them when i take it down. I wouldnt mind if i had to repaint it, i fancy maybe changin it to a gold colour. Anyone here ever painted an engine while fitted? Im pretty mechanichally minded but i dunno if upto a whole engine strip down n rebeuild!
