I was hoping to take it for a run this weekend but with the wind and the river came up 4 feet, it wasn't good enough conditions so I spent a couple of hours cleaning up all the salt and road grime from its trip across the country. After I removed the OR registration numbers, I found ID numbers underneath and they were painted on. It took me a week of slowly wet sanding in a cold garage to get the old numbers off. If you look at the lettering across the windscreen, you can see the different shades. The paint is 3 layers to create the shadowing type of effect. Thankfully, there's a lot of clear coat on it so it cleaned up nicely.
