I like two tones...three tones...not so much.
Glad you're taking the constructive criticism...I'm sure you kinda figured what people would say.
I'm sure we all appreciate what you're doing so THANKS!

Thanks for your thoughts. I've decided that I'm going to do a light clear coat (flat back), apply the decals, sit the tank and panels on the chassis and then make a decision on red white or none. I'll coat over everything with a couple more coats of clear.

I kinda like the white, or none. Not a huge fan of the red, but it certainly doesn't look bad.

I'm w/ Steve. Sometime you gotta know when to stop. You asked for opinions, that's mine.

Ok... white pinstripe, red pinstripe or no pinstripe? Each works with other colours on the bike. So what are you thoughts?

If waiting more then 24 hrs. between base coats and clear, you might consider scuffing the base coats lightly with some 600 just to be on the safe side. Looking forward to the finished project.

My first attempt at painting a second color and masking pin stripes. Actually it's the second time I've spray painted a bike bodywork. A few tiny bleeds but all nowhere they will be obvious.
Black Pearl
I'm tossing up whether to add some white or silver pin stripe tape. Either way I'll spray clear, flat back, apply the decals and then lay wet coats of clear.
