Query-

I have three bikes to paint, and am looking for a good local (IF at all possible) painter. (Local bieng Southern Califorinia) Any and all suggestions welcome.

I have talked with Bob Wark at the Warkshop back east, and if I cannot find a more local vendor I plan to go with him, though his work is pricey. (Typically $1200/bike.) The guy I used for the K75 project (See weblink) did a decent job, but there were issues with bubbling and peeling due to poor prep, and several returns for resprays so I don't think I will use him again.

A package deal would be great.

Thanks everyone.

Larry: If I were you I'd post over at the Pashnit forum. Tons of CA riders there.

Larry,

http://www.holtbmw.com Top notch quality, correct Glasurit paint. NOT CHEAP. The work will be perfect, the main painter and owner is Kent, good people.
