My 95 after rescue, before KLX forks.

I will post more pictures of my fork guard installation this weekend.

What colour frame is that haven't seen one like that before

vlxk98 · Post by **vlxk98** » 08:51 am Dec 18 2013

The frame color is Machine Grey I believe, from my local Ace Hardware.

The original frame color was green. I may go back to green at some point but I thought it was a little overwhelming with so much green at the time of rebuild.

What do you think of the green hubs and black spokes? The hubs are VHT engine enamel green, and gloos black on the spokes. The PO got some sort of chemical on the spokes that didn't clean up very well. So I tore down the wheels and painted the hubs, buffed the spokes and painted them black like the KTMs.

I like that! Especially with the silver rims...so tired of seeing black rims.....Did you paint the swing arm too?

Yes, the swing arm got the Krylon treatment. In retrospect I should have just scuffed it and shot some clear on it rather than spray it with silver.

That's what I'll do next time.

Ooh, good advise! I'm rebuilding my 94 (slowly) and was going to paint, but "scuff (strip in my case) and clear" sounds better!
