Airone gets recognition
« on: June 17, 2021, 06:36:40 AM »
I attended the vintage motofest at road America last weekend.  Entered the airone sport in the show.  LOTS of bikes and people!! Voting was by three judge’s, not the crowd. I was happy to receive the best restored bike award.  Always good to get some affirmation!!

Speaking of paint, I'm thinking of using that color on a project.  What is the proper name/match/code/? for that specific red?

The info off the label for paint is:
Mitsubishi color, OEM code P04, CNP10004
It is PPG/Omni plus   Base coat/clear coat
Hopefully that’s enough info.
Thx,dave

I like how it rides. Brakes are decent for the age, it feels very light and nimble.  Performance is what you expect from a 70yr old bike. It starts first kick, I like that !!  And it hasn’t left me on the side of the road, I like that a lot !!! Lol

I’m relatively tall at 6-1 and the bike is not real big so the ergos aren’t the best. But, it’s not uncomfortable to ride. FYI, the second gen quota fits me VERY well
