FJR bodywork repair and repainting business opportunity
Hi - as some of you know, since I retired I have cut back on some of the farkle offerings I once made. I am currently still offering highway footpeg kits that fit all years as well as clamp setups for mounting pegs to cages. Over the years, I have repaired and repainted quite a few fellow rider's items that appeared to have made contact with terra firma. As part of my retirement efforts, I am considering ceasing this service and plan to sell off my fairly large supply (see image) of acrylic urethane basecoat paint for the FJR years 2003-2013, 2015-2017, & 2019. If you are interested in taking over this business opportunity, please send me a PM. Thanks.

Re: FJR bodywork repair and repainting business opportunity
Seems like a while since the last update to this thread but I'm curious to know if natehawk750 (or perhaps someone else) has taken over the bodywork repair and repainting business due to the need for some fairing and saddlebags on my 2013 requiring more TLC than they recently received after contact with grass and gravel. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

I have not. I started a new job shortly after the original post and its kept me to busy for extra caricucular activities.

Thank you for the update. I'll try a few shops nearby for quotes on the paint job. Definitely sounded like it would be a sweet retirement business opportunity for someone who has some spray painting skills.
