Whats your verdict on the colour scheme?

Post by bob the builder »

Come on then, what about this colour combination? the yellow is the very bright version. It looks much better in the flesh, the wheels are causing me much grief, they look good one day and naff the next.
Currently most of me mates reckon they look shite, are they the only ones?[img][/img][/url]

Not sure about the wheels ( well I think I am but I'm being polite :roll: )

Now if the bike was black that might work

Not 100% sure about the white. It is a personal thing tho so if you like then thats what really matters. With the yellow I think the standard graphite would look good.

Have a look at http://www.aerocoat.net/EnterTitleWHEEL ... OATING.htm for a few ideas. I like the chrome look powdercoat. Bit expensive but good for ideas

I reckon it could be sky blue pink with yellah dots m8 as long as its a storm
but white wheels will be a real bitch to clean. especially if you ride through winter..with all the crap the councils spread on our roads nowadays..

I agree with Barry :!:

I myself am not a fan of white wheels, ever since my brother had them on his GSX1400 he was for ever cleaning them :!: :lol:

Don't Like Yellow????

Post by Styler4077 »

This is the way I want to go for my VTR all colour coded, Bellypan, wheels and hugger.

I'm assuming after this thread that most of you disagree.

This actual bike was for sale Aug / Sep on ebay
