One of my mates quoted me around £350 for a professional job - well out of my price range, but I could put you in touch if you're serious. Can't promise he'd give you the same rates though!

350 quid thats reasonable, but i am talking everything to match, like the tank and front n rear ferin panels, its somat im thinking about it, as i reckon the next stage of my bike is respray then if i still keep the bike beyond next year it can have that power comander 3 i know she is begging me for ! lol ,

surely respraying the bike is going to seriously reduce the value of the bike? so why not sell it now and get a black bike? something a bit cheaper and older that you can use spare cash doing up?

I never knew that, so does resprayin the bike bring the value down much?

you'll lose toad loads of money spraying it, i would'nt pay top price for a resprayed bike (even if it had been done well) as its looks like your covering up its history.
