Hi, I didn't paint the engine yet. On the Honda CB750 the engine has to bo removed and it takes two people to do it. I don't have anyone around where I live to help me so it's on hold until one of my brothers or friends come to visit for four or five days. I want to have the top cam cover polished and then I will bead blast the engine with crushed walnut shells before I paint it. This bike is showroom quality except for the engine paint. I was really stupid for not doing it when the bike was restored. I had it down to the bare frame at that time and thought the engine looked pretty good at the time. When I got it back together I relized I was very wrong. Thanks for the tip on the paint. I did go and buy it and it will match the original color great.

How did this paint hold up in your bike for the summer? Also what all did you do to prep the engine as far as cleaning?
