bshultz0930 Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 so, since the wreck, ive decided to tear the bike down to the frame. im going to be repainting everything. i havent, or cant quite decide of a paint scheme. im looking for something thats not typical. so far my thoughts are full black with a white engine and tank. OR full black with a gold engine, with gold levers, gold pegs, etc. your thoughts? kind of a stupid thread but im looking for thoughts and opinions.

OsuMj Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 a white engine would definitely be unique! I would worry about keeping it clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bshultz0930 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 yea, i was thinking about that and im mostly worried about the white on the gnine getting stained really easily.. i think im heading towards a gold engine with black covers.

bshultz0930 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 not gold gold.. like a yellowish gold, the "gold" color the levers and such come as. i think real gold color would look horribly ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reimbrandt Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 I like bads idea...... Copper is something isnt done very often but would look good against the black. Make for some cool accents. Either that or a brass look..... Think about it. Brass knuckle levers......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidersDiscount Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 Yes.Biggest thing to think of with anything other than a dark colored engine is cleaning maintenance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 thats that flat black looking stuff correct?flat black...if you can get it line-X or rhinoloned, you probably won't ever have to worry about scratching your "paint" again...

granda080 Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 I know when I repainted my bike choosing the color scheme was the most difficult part. Good luck. I went with a bumblebee bike...which I love to hate as it reminds me FAR too much of the Steelers.Go BROWNIES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
