Hi all, I need the collective artistic talent of the GSR

Orange colour in place of the black tape stripe on the cooley's lower stripe. Yellow following the cooley's upper black tape stripe. Need an accent colour where the blue is on the cooley but I don't have the gimp loaded on my workstation.

Doc, I played around with changing he blue to the red and orange, was a bit over powering, I think the black needs to dominate, but just needs to be broken, I like the idea of replacing the two black stripes with the two colours, maybe instead of keeping them as 1/8th stripes, open them up to an inch to get more colour in, then do both the blue and white in black.
I will play with it, I like the idea.

Stan, just change the black stripe tape to the two stripe colours. The upper (8mm?) stripe being the yellow and the lower being the orange. If there is a blue stripe on the bodywork as well, spray the sky blue section on the 'cooley" fairing the same colour and keep the lower fairings colour black.

Comprende?

This, but with a lot less orange on the front of the bike. Maybe just a thin stripe on the fender and another on the fairing.

OK how about a 3/4" orange stripe down the center of the fender and another along the white stripe on the fairing, with more black on the other side. Let all of the fairing be black except for the stripe, inside the headlight hole and above it all black too.

More like this?





Or this old F? My favorite.

Starting to look a might Harleyish with a fairing painted with all that orange I think. maybe best in black with thin accent stripes where the white one is on that rendering.

[wedoo2]

Switch the orange with black, and put the stripes where the white is?

[wedoo2]

How about this one?




I would ride around on that one.

Forgot the fender

I think if that were my bike, I would have the fairing stripes follow the natural body lines of the fairing like on an S model. Those are prominent lines. I would do three stripes. The 2 shades of orange about 1/2" wide each, with a thin gold 1/8" pin stripe to frame them in. You go too crazy and it takes away from the beauty of the simplicity of it.

Leave it

It's a good looking bike and it's unique. Leave it as it is.

Rob S, I think Flyboy is looking to get some ideas on how make his 'Cooley' fairing to best match the stripes that that were on the bike when new.

Here's his blank canvas.
