repainting my 5500
      12/20/03 02:32 AM (205.188.208.134)

Hello all. I'm the proud owner of a 2000 postal 5500. After many thousands of miles and a couple minor crashes the bike's paint has become a bit of a blight. I'm also kind of sick of the garrish red-white-blue format. I don't feel like spending the dig and sending it out for a repaint but understand that I can't just rip the paint off like I did on my Bianchi or De Bernardi. Any suggestions from someone who's done a repaint? I would be happy to hear about a proper method of peeling decals and sanding/removing the gelcoat.

thanks all
cheers
