Yeah the cafe needs a redo. It's spray bombed right now but someday I would love to do it right.Originally posted by pete View Post
I still think a matte black skunk would look awesome. I'm talking base with OEM pinstripes and a matte clear.sigpic

Cooley for sure..Comment

I like the black with blue stripe, followed by the red... What would really be cool is the red with a black stripe instead of white!
Octain, I met a guy on a ride last year who took his brand new Harley to the paint shop because he wanted a matte finish on his maroon full dress. All they did was scuff it and spray flat clear on it, but it looked awesome!!!Comment

Ok, I've thought about it some more and I'd like to see the red skunk, with black instead of white, and the blue from #2 instead of the gold pinstripes.Comment

Call me traditional, but I like the Cooley and the Skunk myself. The Red Skunk isn't bad either. The black with blue stripe doesn't work for me though. Looks like some masking was left on. (NOT a criticism of your work!)Comment

The blue all the way, but then again I'm a bit biased because that's how my '78 originally was painted. Right now its solid "space blue metallic" from the 2002 Bandit but I think it'd look good with the current color and reproduction decals.Comment

Interesting replies, you guys. The black with blue stripes that some have mentioned is actually a very dark blue metallic. It really sparkles in the sun. I'll try to get some outside shots when they're all polished. The red one is now in the process of being modified to fit this format, making it more correct. I've got the black pinstripes on the white stripe done, now I'm just waiting to have the "GS" for the top of the tank to be made so I can lay out the other stripes.
