Maybe in a couple of years I'll do that to mine, once I reduce it to a bucket of parts. Gives me a couple of ideas for the repairs though. Nice one Willie! Like the gloss black on the headlight. Might try that with mine. Any hints about painting chrome?

I'm almost tempted to buy a Trumper meself.

Menace... you wanna pain chrome, get your 'scotchbrite' pad out (Brillo Pads over here) and get your elbow sore... then buy a can of BBQ paint or rattle can and work away ;)

I just bought an old sidecar again for my Dnepr 650... presently giving it a rattlers can of basic black... hoipe to have all three wheels on the road by New Years, depedning upon some parts in the post from Moscow :D

It'll look something like this when complete ;)

Or you could buy a 'new' classic... the Ural Retro...

Like Unka Fen said, scuff it up REAL good and slap the paint to it.

Fen, Your hack got a live axle?

I removed the 2WD system, as it was scaring the shiite outta me, and apparently they are not too healthy when the chair comes up and then slaps down to earth... kinda bucks you off the bike...

So I'll be on a 'normal' hack when it goes back on. However, I'll onkly have it on for a few months, until I can have the 'Govt.' peeps pass it on the roadworthiness test... then I'll prolly take it off again until winter :)

But I do have reverse... which is the ultimate in cool ;)
