Came from a 1987 vs700 - the mudguard has been sanded, primed and had 1 coat of black automotive paint (from a spray gun, professional setup) so you can consider this as professionally primed and ready to paint in your desired colour.

It was ready for the clear coat and to go on the bike but I decided to go with a different one before that happened so this one just went on a shelf in my garage where it did receive a few scratches so will need another round of light sanding before it's ready for spraying

There has never been any rust on it the painting (from original suzuki red) was purely due to me wanting a different colour)
