Why do people paint that front floating chain guard bracket?!...

I believe this bike came through Chuck Rosa. If its the same bike I saw it is not what I would call a high end resto but still a presentable bike. I believe when I first saw it there was a crossbar on it as well. V/r Shawn

Good looking bike 1941. Curious to see what it and some of the others bring.

I think some restorations were done before we had the web to search for good examples to use. I've seen some great looking bikes the where incorrect because they looked at another incorrect bike for an example. Both were beautifully done but were not exactly correct.

Or whomever restored it could have taken notes when they stripped off the original paint..... just a thought.....

I've always wondered why in newer homes, the drywall in garages is finished to the skim coat, but left unpainted or even primed.
I also wonder why owners just leave it that way.

Property tax reasons, same with attics and all other dry-walled storage spaces, paint it and it's taxed as finished space.
