Title: Frame paint differences?
Post by: thrownchain on August 17, 2008, 08:19:32 PM
How does the frame paint color differ from the Early ['72 - '74], to the late frames?  ['77]?? I had my '73 frame painted with Alumiblast and it came out great, but I've seen posts where it mentions a 'gray' paint for the later years.  thx

You can put 10 different frames side by side and you will have at least 5 different colors.  No big worry, KTM used what they had at the time when painting.  I paint all mine GM silver as I had it matched to a new frame out of the paper but there are many different shades used throughout the years.;)
