White House K10 - a story of regeneration

[Ninemeister_imp]

Whilst I busied myself with the mechanicals at home, Mike & Keith at the paint shop had also been working hard on preparing the K10 parts off the bike for paint:

Headlight bowl rubbed down for primer, then primed

Tank dent pulled out, keyed up, filled and primed

Side panels flatted down for primer
Thanks must go to Takashi at Samurider for his superb customer service. The "missing" K10 parts (headlight ears, tail light, chrome speedo covers) were ordered from him on 7th September, were shipped on 15th and arrived with me on 18th. Awesome.

The headlight ears were a work of art, nicely pressed, fully machined tube and super quality brazing along the joint. Was almost a shame to have them painted, but needless to say I ran them round to Mike's so he could carry on with the job and he soon had them etch primed, then primed everything in light grey ready for colour.
