Paint Schemes.

[Phantomtek]

Thinking of getting a design on the SV when I respray, just wondered if there is any ideas as to what I can get?

Any paint schemes you have?

I would like the two stripes like 'northwind' of this forum has, but am open to different styles :D

£250 licence fee for the stripes :)

Konica Minolta colours. Or, check out the Jap superbike website for some interesting and unusual designs

[northwind]

Something in silver and red... Like that R1 in PB. Match the silver to the frame but keep them apart with the other colour. I like my stripes, my next version's going to be the same overall style, but if I didn't I'd look at something bold and swoopy in a really bright, arterial metallic red.

I was going to go Orange & Black, got a quote and everything.. then sold the bike :wink:

[sprocket]

Bright pink ... with tassles on your bar ends :wink:

[Jase22]

and have your seat re-covered in white.

I think we have a winner!

No just kidding, I want it to stay blue but have a design in a different colour on the bike such as stripes.

Nothing too bizzare, I may just go with the stripes but not tell northwind as I don't wanna be charged :shock: :lol:

I should be respraying mine soon, keeping it black (i got a black k5) but moving the suzuki s from the side, onto the top of the tank (square bit at front of tank) and having my wrist tattoo on the side of the tank where the S's were (for those of you who have seen my tattoo you know what i mean)

Tank needs respraying after my off last August (05).

That is not an SV :) Lovely silver though, looks amazingly deep. Still need to see you about a clearcoat ;)

[paulthewitt]

Copy the single stripe that is offset like on the ducati monster S2R.

Good View here:

but please don't use those colours. Maybe silver with a cobalt blue like on this:

go blue with some blue flakes in the laquer :wink: will look standard in the shade,but then when the sun hits it............... 8) 8) 8)

[Phantomtek]

Paul that is a very very good idea, I like it. The blue flakes, what are these? :?

[John Burt]

Like cornflakes but made of spangly stuff and not very good for your fillings :wink:

[r4ce_e3nd]

black and some red details, I would say...
including black frame and rims with red lines on the side :wink:

[instigator]

Rat bike it. :)

I plan to splash assorted paints ALL over my dented tank and scratched plastics. May as well and at least it'll be different. :P

see what i mean looks completly different when the sun aint on then :D

[Phantomtek]

Ah I call that pearlescent paint, therein lies the confusion. Looks expensive.

I think that this:

Would be great if I had fairing lowers to spray the grey colour, but unfortunately I don't. :(

I think the offset Duke stripe is leading at the moment, really taken to that :D
