White House K10 - a story of regeneration

[Ninemeister_imp]

That 2nd pic, greenish/bluish colour does not appeal to me.
Yes to the last pic, black, on a lighter/contrast colour panels.
Your project + your decision = you'll love it.

The photos are off the internet PB, so both are just chrome & black reflecting their surroundings.

I've honestly not decided yet.
My thoughts are that the 1150 appeals more as it sounds similar to 750 when said, but I prefer the oem look & quality of the 1100 badge. White House took the easy/cheap route by using a chrome/black decal with the "four" off a 750 badge which is surprising given the cost of the kit.
I guess what I'm saying is that I want an 1150 badge that looks like the 1100 version, but can't find one (yet). Worst case, I suppose I could have some made.

OK, I got it.
I would say, you should first get the major things painted and assembled.
Then you can play with any smaller accents like badges to see how these play to your liking. Knowing the internet and colour printing power, you can even print them out and place a badge on your side panel prior buying. Have a thin cardboard behind it to imitate 3D. Take a look at it from a distance. Sure is not the same as a real badge but at least you can see how your eye and brain react to it.

I believe that in many cases, the first snapped picture that remains in your brain is what you may look for, desire or like...just a thought.
Also, you have to filter too many advisors...like me

The trial run makes a lot of sense. I talked through this with painter Mike today and he suggested the same, mainly to position the badges so they look "right" with the bike assembled so I might as well play with options whilst I'm there.

Advisors - or opinions? I always welcome an opinion, even when it is wrong.


Seriously, I do welcome ALL suggestions and will take them on board, but as you have said before, the final decision will of course be mine to make.
Nibbled away at the task list a little more over the last two nights:[ul] [li]Etch primed and silver painted the underside of the mudguard[/li] [li]Soldered and sealed the rear light wiring (preferred to connectors)[/li] [li]Trial fitted the rear wheel to check the new chain with the old sprocket
[/li][/ul]
Was not sure about the chain length after seeing the adjustment position, however that is around the same as the old chain so I'm guessing the new sprocket should sort it when it arrives.

However, as the original task list gets shorter, a new one gets longer. Don't you just love Mission Creep?
