Hello Riders, I've got a question about the condition and amount of original paint is allowed for and unrestored M/C. Example:#1 Left Tank has paint missing down to bare metal in a 3x5 area in the fuel spill zone,the rest of the tanks are normal wear. #2 The rear fender has directly on top bare metal in a 4x7 area under the luggage rack and foward behind oil tank in the battery zone there are bare spots.(I know thats not a good area to keep it bare) The rest of the paint on fender and braces is normal. Front fender just a little spot of bare metal. At what point is the M/C paint considered beyond wear and should be restored as stated in the judging handbook? Overall bare metal about 10% maybe... Thank you for any responses, As I do not want to repaint the sheetmetal to restore this M/C. I ride it. Sincerely, Merlin
