    Paint scheme opinions

    Bike will get stripped for powdercoating and repaint soon, and I was thinking of maybe going with something a little different. Obviously the paint now is non-stock, and the orange has kind of grown on me.

    What do you guys think of the orange (copper) on this trike? I'm thinking it might look really good. And yes the girl is hot and has a nice rump.:-D

    The white on my bike might need to be changed to black. I've always liked the black and brass (or copper in this case) look. Anyone have good phoptoshop skills?

    Trike:


    As she is now:

    Paint and graphics are a very personal thing I think. No point in asking for opinions as you'll get a million different answers. I, for one, don't like anything in a red/orange/burgundy/ copper preferring blues/greens/silver and or black. Reds ok for Hondas not Zuks or Yammies IMHO.

    Your bike, the tradtional light blue with white accents or (my fav) black with white or even silver skunk stripes.

    Who cares what others say if you like it...good enough.

    I'm betting it comes out copper with black accents:-D

    Cheers,

      Russ, if you are considering that color, check out Tracy's bike. I think it looks great. At least it will give you an idea.

        I hear you. I know I'll get alot of opinions both ways. Sometimes when you get a bunch of opinions good ideas come from it, which is what I was going for. That blue you mentioned was the original color btw.

        Tracy's bike looks great John, thanks for showing me. When I get that 1100 swingarm I figured I would get it powdercoated black too if I was going to go with that type of scheme. Maybe just a little darker copper than that bike.

          Hmm is there a trike on that link??? Must have been distracted.....

          I like Copper but I also really like what you have now... That same scheme in any colours aside from perhaps violent pink with Kawasaki green would look great!!
