Well, my first bike model, and also first model since I was a young kid.
First attempt I tried too many colours, silver, copper, clear red, clear blue and blue. Started out good and then got too dark with excess paint. So I stripped it and started again, stripping it actually gave it a weathered look sort of like my old ZX11 in my garage.
1st coat Testor's silver
2nd, light dusting of Tamiya titanium gold
Then some accents with Tamiya clear blue
mounted
and the other side, showing my decal damage on the yellow/black, ouch
