#471829 Shaggyone (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 156 selling stuff for paint job, need color recs 1 Year, 1 Month ago   hi all~ I've decided to sell off a mikuni carb and 31 tooth pulley (see classifieds!) and put the money towards a new paint job. I've been thinking about the paint for a year now, and i still can't decide what colors to go with so i'm curious what you all would think might look good on my bike w/ the corbin bags that i have. I think the bags give the bike an old Studebaker car feel or something along those lines, and i'd like the color choice to really compliment that look. its not in the picture below, but i also have a reckless fairing that i've decided to keep so that would need painted too. give me some ideas! i dont want flames or skulls, but two-tone might be OK.   Logged     Last Edit: 2012/03/24 19:33 By Shaggyone.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #471831 BlackRain (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 959 Re:selling stuff for paint job, need color recs 1 Year, 1 Month ago   Blackkkkkkkkk   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #471834 ultrastar (User) Keep The Speedometer Side Up Platinum Boarder Posts: 4057 Re:selling stuff for paint job, need color recs 1 Year, 1 Month ago   Maybe it's just me but I think looks great silver   Logged     Keep The Speedometer Side   The administrator has disabled public write access. #471837 brown91redcam (User) Another Day In the Wind Platinum Boarder Posts: 2072 Re:selling stuff for paint job, need color recs 1 Year, 1 Month ago   With the silver base color some kind of candy color would look nice over it   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #471877 GreenMachine (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 479 Re:selling stuff for paint job, need color recs 1 Year, 1 Month ago   How about something like this:   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #471882 rballew (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 362 Re:selling stuff for paint job, need color recs 1 Year, 1 Month ago   you wanting a nostalgia look or hot rod look ? i'm bias to the classic/nostalgia. i get nostalgia paint scheme inspired by riding thru town where houses were built in the 1940's & 50's. the homeowners have remodeled and repainted the exterior with colors of that time period.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #471883 Crazyron1369 (User) The first scratch hurts the most.

Wow, everybody's input will be as varied as a year's worth of your own ideas. It'll still come down to what YOU WANT. I've been thinking the same thing for mine and that's why I haven't done it yet. Good luck. MAKE IT YOUR OWN! And let us see the progress   Logged     Riding = Living. We need it. We live because of it. We breath it. It keeps us alive, plain and simple.

Good luck. MAKE IT YOUR OWN! And let us see the progress i agree 100% with twowheeltherapy. took me about 2.5 years of tossing ideas around until i found something that was just what i wanted. imho,those hard bags are just screaming a pretty old school color of the studebaker time frame. just do what feels right to you. it may take some time. but,you'll immediatley know when you come across or think of the color/s that right for you.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #471908 COBRA_COMMANDER (User) Cobra Commander Wants You!
