Pick me a colour
 
So, it looks like instead of just respraying the front panels and lowers, I might be changing the whole bike's colour... Well, I'm already doing 5 panels, so adding another 4 plus tank plus other little bits is no longer such a massive deal (plus if I spray the mirrors, they won't look quite so terrible any more)

But what colour should I go? I don't really like race reps, and I don't want a standard SV colour.

The bike's an '00, so it has the black and charcoal engine, and charcoal wheels. It'll be wearing lowers and a seat hump, and has its front forks powdercoated gloss black. The rear brake caliper is gold, the fronts will follow some time.

No, no, no. There is only one serious colour and that's black. C'mon now, you should know this. ;)

Votes for the Mysterymobile scheme will be ignored :wink:

Jonboy, another option's a proper metallic black, not just this slightly sparkly gloss Y7L nonsense... but I forgot to list that :oops:

I've always been a fan of the orange used for HM Plant Ducati that Toseland and Walker road with in WSB last year. It was a really nice deep orange. Always thought it'd go well with the black plastic trim, etc. Maybe it's just me, but one day...
Sorry to here about your bike...B*stards :evil:

Voted for the hippy look. Sort of matches your appearance :twisted:

Failing that go for the green.....blends in with grass. :wink:

Well you could certainly boast that there were no clones of yours in the group :twisted: if you went for it. :wink:
