Thanks for the ideas... .. I was out to the auto parts store early to get started on the all day projects on the bike. I ended up finding a nice selection of engine paint from Dupli Color with several shades of red including an 'orange red". Got it done with out fussing over itl 3 coats in the 90 degree temps just outside my garage on my folding table spray booth! Cam eout ok. Just one chip. May repaint again some day if I really want to go the "shoe bike" route.
