Honda CA160 Motorcycle – Restoration Part 3 - (Pics)

Posted February 16, 2007 9:25 AM by stilljester

Lots of progress made over these past 2 weeks - Pictures pretty much tell the story.

Next stop >>> Paint, I'm thinking a Candy Metallic Red with Silver.

It's gonna look good. Nice careful job there.

I'm a bit concerned though. How deep are the rust spots on that stressed,
pressed metal frame? - Can't tell from the photos.

Bondo has'nt got a lot of tensile strength y'know.

I'd describe the rust spots as lightly dimpled. Not deep enough for any concern thank goodness. I probably won't even bother with filler....

Update: Frame is now primed.
