I agree with Nacs, I think it is painted too,... BUT I have a personal invitaion for a private tour of the Honda Factory and I will get to see in person for sure :-)

The Honda ATV plant is only 3.5 hours from me, I am hoping to make the tour with my family the first part of March, can't wait!!

If you have never seen the article about the ATV plant, do yourself a favor and spend a few mintues and read this.. http://www.atvillustrated.com/?q=node/729 it is VERY COOL!

I never knew that they cast and make the engines, mold all the plastics, weld the frames, spin the wheels, and almost everything,.. all IN HOUSE in a small town in South Carolina!!

I will wait till the end of the tour before I do that :-)

Seriously, as you know the plant guys have nothing to do with things like that, they just build what they are told to. I will say they are very friendly and darn nice folks when I talked with them.
