Sparky-(Admin) 21,348 #3 Posted December 23, 2020 I don’t think they ever produced a round hood from the factory with a white hood. It musta been painted by a previous owner. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sk650 13 #5 Posted December 23, 2020 Reason I asked is because the hood on my 552 is all white. No red underneath the paint. Somebody painted the belt guard to match and it was red underneath the white 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHNJ701 4,165 #6 Posted December 23, 2020 Curious to see pics. I do know of a suburban that is white and red that was custom ordered that was either dealer repainted or factory. I knew he was selling his collection 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
