When I split the cases to renew the crank bearings it was the perfect opportunity to re-paint the whole engine. I used
some wire wheel attachments on a drill and some fine grade sand paper to prep it. The paint I used was engine enamel acrylic
spray paint from a can.
The new cylinder head was red (XL250R) so this had to be baked in the oven; REALLY bad smell in the kitchen
doing it this way, so open them windows for sure!!
