Hi Ron , no problem with posting picture ,Sean found the bike so I will have to ask him the history regards Robert

Thanks for the info I'll check them out regards Robert

He did and i have chosen the divisional wksp logo . I have a friend who is a professional sprayer and he will spray the bike for me with the prober two pack paint bit more hard wearing, do you happen to know the RAL no for khaki green Robert

Hi Ron Thanks for the welcome, really looking forward to getting this bike restored and riding ,I'm veering away from the desert colour though . love the colour of yours and i have seen a couple of nice brownish ones ,also i want to but a REME theme on the bike as i have history with them and as i have no intention of selling it , don't believe the REME would ever have used them but at the end of the day its only a sticker. Regards Robert
