Re: Black paint on silencer, gearbox and crankcase?

Fair enough, thanks for the input. Before cleaning it off I wanted to see if anyone here was aware of it possibly being a service thing.

Re: Black paint on silencer, gearbox and crankcase?

I've seen plenty of post war army repainted motorcycles, going back to a gloss or semi gloss Bronze Green. Often the engine and gearboxes were painted too, even sometimes the complete mag/dyno, carb and cylinder barrel. Which were always done in the same colour green. I can't think of any practical or purposeful reason to "two tone" a WD motorcycle. Ron

Re: Black paint on silencer, gearbox and crankcase?

If you give me the number on the rebuilt plate on the valve cover, I can tell you more info on your bike. Also from the factory the exhaust and pipe were Matt chromed or cad plated.

Cheers, Lex
