I had mine done in random satin and it looked great.
There's no sense in labouring over any original finishes on these bikes as they vary far too much.

Re: New 3 1/2 at Eicma show
Well, that is quite amazing, I must say. Modern enough, but not as divisively styled nor angular as the worst offenders. Design-wise, it seems to share DNA with that particular vintage Sport behind it, but my old K1 would look different again. I'd say, congratulations and it could have gone so wrong.

Also, please note there are two very different calipers depending on your bike's year.

Slight diversion - the original sump plugs say use Castrol GTX on the bottom.

Re: Cast wheel colour id
Based on the likelihood that any gold would have done for Grimeca (as well as any red for Moto Morini) I plumbed for "Spanish Gold". RAL-schmal. Mine were so faded they looked "nappy tan" beforehand but - as you can see - they looked fantastic when finished. https://i.ibb.co/0jX9...

Re: Fly Screen
I used a plain, clear Givi on mine, no trouble. Maybe they've changed their offerings since then.

Re: H4 bulbs can I swap for an LED bulb
Wow, thank you so much for organizing that.

Re: A question of forks
Mdina Italia is also listing fork tops, for future use.
I'm sure classicandvintage are lovely folks but to a point Mdina depends on us and we on them!
