Engine Paint!

[rossi1981]

the paint on the front of my Xmoto is missing some bits where it has corroded underneat that then peeled off.

anyone know of a high temp paint that will match nicely so i can touch it up?

or is it just a gloss / semi gloss black?

about to start a full restore on my bike after winter and it needs a bit of work.

help me!!

As Easyrider5258 says, it's not too hard a job and doesn't require a specially high temperature paint.

I've successfully used Hammerite smooth silver and satin black on various engine parts of my 1100 with good results. As with all jobs like this, it's the prep that makes all the difference. I'm not sure which part you're actually talking about but if you can remove it and prep it / paint it on a bench it's easier than trying to work on it on the bike.
