Touching Up

Hello all, it has been around a month since my last look at the board, I have been running about like a blue arsed fly setting up a new dept at work, etc

I am now happy with the SP, all the mechanics and suspensionis sorted, Diablo's fitted so basically it goes like stink!I think I upset an Honda SP1 yesterday, the 13 year old duke ate him alive.

I have raised the ride height a bit with the adjusters on the swingarm and am much happier with the handling of the bike. I seem to have "dialled out" the unusual "long feeling" it had,

I now want to mint it,

At some stage the bike has been scratched and the paint has been chipped in a couple of places, one of the last owners has used a poor choice of touch up paint which looks pink against the ducati red. Any ideas for removing the pink paint and suggest an effective way of restoring it to its former glory?

I will eventually get it re-sprayed but funds will not allow this(getting married in July)

Regards

Simon
