Did someone mention Cooper?
I just finished rehanging the parts on mine after getting a respray from Ed Litton (I had the forks rechromed, too). It may not look like it needed one, and to many of you it wouldn't have, but it had some good sized chips in the paint and had a bit of bubbly stuff happening under the paint and the chrome, so I thought I'd rather nip that in the bud.

It looks even better in sunshine - the blue isn't sparkly (Ed asked if I wanted sparklies, but that didn't seem right on a Cooper), but is almost luminescent, and the white lettering just pops. I love the way it turned out. And, of course, it's a great ride.
