Roland (board member)would be the guy, he doesn't paint any more but works for PPG. He could likely hook you up with someone.

A very good friend of mine has all his bikes painted by John Connery. He’s been painting bikes since I was in high school. His shop is in Scarborough. I wouldn’t expect a cheap price but high quality work. Have a look at the website and you will see some clasic bikes that he did and took first place a the Toronto show. Ie: Congrats to Steve Cannellis for winning best vintage (H2 paint by Connery) at the International Motorcycle Supershow 2011 www.connerycustompaint.com/ |

Actually I had a Ninja painted buy him/thme (think there are 2 brothers) I didn't have it painted I bought the bike that he had painted. I'll get in touch with them in the new year.
Good Idea.

So un update on the KH 500, I have been puttering away at the bike God it running but never on all 3 cyl, some times the left will fire sometimes the right will fire but the center always fire. Rebuild the Fuel tap and carbs seems no problem there accept the spring in the fuel tap is not the correct spring so I have to find one of those had float issues 6 floats 2 did not leak but I was able to repair a 3rd one.
When I start it, it drips rapidly oil and gas from the underside of the left side of the engine case, I guess a crank seal has popped or could be worse but it seems I'm going to have to pull the engine and split the cases and see wtf is going on.
oh the price we pay to own a triple or any 2 stroke.

Hey one other thing does any one know where I can buy fuel tap spring for a H1 or KH500, diablo does not carry them.

Inner Crankseal may be bad but that isn't your problem. More likely carb float/needle jet.
