Honda CBF600. Lipstick on the pig.

Dip beam stopped working after the bike was out in the rain for 3 days.    On inspection I found the clutch side switchgear was full of water I suspect was because the bike was on the side stand.  I check the fish and the power was going into and out of the headlight relay so thought the switch was ruined.   So I got a replacement from EBay.  Guess what it wasn’t that .  It was corrosion between the headlight loom and the bikes loom.   So put new connections in the headlight loom and all is good now.   Pain the the arse but fixed now.   

 

Anyway now it’s all apart I thought it was time to deal with the faded black plastic face of the bike and dial surrounds.   I tried the blow lamp trick but wasn’t happy with the results so got the Matt satin black out.  Waiting for it to dry now.

Just gotta wait for it to dry properly now and can put the bike back together.   I have really missed it being out of action in bits.   
Not gonna win any prizes but is much tidier than it was.   I used the same paint I did to do my mirrors backalong so should all blend in once cured.

Bet it'll look smart.

If you were buying it again, how much more do you think you would be happy to pay to have it looking like it does now after all the little improvements? All together, they must make a big difference in looks.
