Picked up a motorcycle today, it's my 2nd bike. 1980 Yamaha Maxim 650, a great bike for only $700. Had less than 11k on it and everything is in great shape. Put some new mufflers on it, and this winter I'm gonna repaint it since its just rattlecanned.

As it was when I picked it up


Some chrome polish, new mufflers, and about 400 miles of riding lol

nice!

ive been searching around for a similar style older triumph (like a 70's bonneville t140 or so)

what color would you paint it? i would do like a gunmetal or something, but a nice job in blue should also look classy biggrin.gif

I'm torn between a gunmetal type of color like you said, or kind of a creamy pearl white. No matter what color, the tank needs some repair if not replacement, so it may just be rattlecan black for a couple months lol
