Well within the next month or so Im gonna get my bike repainted (well the manta tank and ducati monster tail). Anyways, I cannot decide what kind of paint them I want to go with. Im thinking either a dark grey or white with a black stripe down the center but still unsure. Anyways, lets see some pictures of your paint jobs on your tubers. Looking for ideas of what might look good


Thanks,
Spencer

Ah that green and gold is magnificent. how just start using some brass pieces to accentuate it even further.

I'm actually partial to an HD color, if you like gray/charcoal. Black Pearl metallic - near-black in shadows, but in the sunlight it has multicolored mica chips that flat GLOW. Put on some bright pinstripes like the gold on the green bike above...like a red or bright blue...and I think that would be sharp.

I like the dark gray, and black. I tried a flat black with white gloss race stripes prior to this paint job, had a white front wheel too, it looked okay but matching the rear wheel and maybe the frame would have suited the look a little better.
