Rear wheel is just a colour i had left over from somthing, swingarm is an enamel wheel silver (i cheated) caliper is just a matt black so it can be touched up easy as not much will resist brake fluid

Hey Z. Good to see a 250 getting done as most people can't be bothered with the smaller bikes, so seeing one done is always a change. Can you bring some more photos in off the whole bike in it's progress stages?
