Back with a M900 series I

I got another 2 pieces for the bike and the frame swatch in Satin finish today.

My sprocket washer was decidedly toothless so this was £2,25 ebay and cheaper than new.

Also the piece de resistance in mocking up the LOOK with the rubber cup. A pair of hoses going nowhere will connect just for show and as these are £16 each I will retain usage of the £6 ones fitted under the tank.

The colour plate confirms to me powdercoat is happening in a few weeks time. It feels right and looks good and still has that metallic shine in it. Its actually very hard to photograph against the original tube and that paint has had white primer removed and lost some colour sheen over the years. At £110 its a no brainer to me.

So let me be the guinea pig on this one.
