[Bigdog]

I would have to agree, if it is in that good of condition, leave it original.

  G or S-
  Why do you suggest this?  Yes, it is in very good
  original condition, including the ventilated side
  shrouds on the engine sides (left and right).  Do not
  others recondition these old fellas using the
  "correct" paint combinations?  Am I going in the wrong
  direction?
  I need advice, as the machine is sitting pretty right
  now and in its "original" condition.
  Thanks so much.
  JM
