I'm pushing 60 years old and feel like a child when I ride..love the video and long live two strokes.

W🤩🤩🤩w, this restauration truly came out perfect! I own a 2007 CRF250R, recently renovated quite some parts of it,it's pretty much done visually except for the graphics which I still need to choose,still needs replacement of big parts like the exhaust,both silencers and pipes though the original ones have no dents, nibs or scratches whatsoever... Saying this because Honda is the brand I like the most but this video on the restauration done to this Kawasaki and how it turned out to be really spiked my apetite on these greeny ladies,moreover a friend of mine just finished a full restauration on a 1996 KDX250 just like the one you performed and it's looking deliciously good,he's just waiting on the exhaust chamber to return as he send it out for a nickel-plating procedure. Once again big congrats all the way from 🇵🇹 on the work done, I think that we all should save most of these old school dirt bikes from ending up their lives as metal scraps...

It all depends on surface prep, the materials used, the maintenance provided and the abuse the paint is exposed to, not so much the application method, done properly. I expect the rebuilder used a high quality paint that will last many years.
