I will be taking on some side work, $25hr + materials. No job too small. I'm also making drop bars, ($25 off for club members).

hey Tim, I got a '58 GS that's pretty clean, just one little ding on the edge. floor is good. the glove box cowl needs a patch job, though.

I have three scratches that need some help on my GS 160 too

let's talk about it sometime.

I need a bike painted, but I am on a budget. I want the best paint job can you do in one hour. can I still win the bike build off in vegas?

About how long would it take to repaint a P200 (for price estimate)?

tim will probably have more exact figures, but a good estimate is $300 for just the materials (paint, reducer, etc). repainting bikes and doing the body work can be a bit of a challenge to balance the cost/return. another idea to consider rather than painting an entire bike is to paint just the cowls, mud guard, horncrest and headset parts. plus depending on the condition of the bike, you may have to have it dipped to remove all the paint and rust which can run $100-$150 usually.

It depends on the condition of the bike and the quality of the paint. A rough guess would be $800-$1500 including materials. The cost could exceed that if you want any custom work.
