  • Suzuki Shaolin Paint Scheme

    hey guys i'm doing up my shaolin, just put in a new bore. was planning to re paint the bike.

    the stickering is really hard to find if any of you know where i could possibly get original stickers, a long shot i know. or get stickers made.

    also i wanted to know if anybody has photographs of a stock blue shaolin. there were a few snaps on the xbhp site before the server crash. i'm hoping against hope atleast one of you still has them.

    awaiting yours thoughts and replys

    Aditya

              i see you still have the stock crash guard and th e saree guard.. how come the engine is so badly screwed i'd have assumed the previous owner kept it totally stock

                shit man thats a ton of rust on the frame



                also try find pictures of the stock blue shaolin. its just beautiful.. was the last model 2000.. the paint used this the super excel paint :P

                but what really makes it stand out it the stickering.. i've seen only two blue shaolins so far.. as it is the shaolin is a very rare bike. i think your colour is the most popular

                  ya ddue....true mine was the most common paint scheme...the previous owner kept the bike near the sea side so it wasbadly corroded....dont worry i just visited the people ive given it to paint for,,,,,,shes coming up good....hahhaha......the prev owners infact wer a company....so it was a company bike n all the people in the company used to use it.....so they pretty much dint care bout maintainence...

                  wen we opened the engine we saw alot of scratch marks on the piston indicatin that it has been seized before......besides piston rings have aslack n they need to b changed......but we cant really tell wheather its on its over size or wat.....besides u dont stuff like pistin rings in Goa of that bike.,.....thats y am so desperate to get a block piston (standard) n some oversizes for the future..........

                      You can still save the original stickers, if they're in good condition, even when going in for a repaint. Just ask the paint shop guys to save them-they'll put a white tape on it.
                      Also, tell them to spray the clear coat on the vehicle after the last coat of paint has been sprayed. This will save the paint from scratches&give a glossy look life long. You will never need to get it teflon coated too.
                      Quench my thirst with gasoline!

                              not only are getting shaolin spares tough to figure out but also a simple thing like paint scheme and stickering can leave you scratching ure head eh......
