thanks Badger. i loved the colour to and wish i still had the bike.

here is the bike in question:



(click pic for a bigger picture)

the colour code is YLF metallic thunder grey.

Satin finish bright orange with subtle black logos and satin black wheels and a satin black frame. No fake sponsorship decals and no hideous graphics.

Silver frame and wheels and i`m not stripping down to paint the frame. Liking grey more and more so far though. Perhaps some burnt orange lines to enhance the curves on the bike. Going to go for matt black sv lettering and only the ones that should be there with an org sticker or 2 somewhere.

Aww man I just gave away litre of metallic gun metal....but metallic gun metal would look good!

Liking this but the black would have to be grey and slightly less orange or completely burnt orange

As I said at the AR that is a nice bike. Quick question though, it looks like you have covers over some of the bolts in the frame (swing arm, engine mounts) what have you used for that?

Noticed a guy selling them at the local autojumble just black plastic covers.Thought it gave the frame a nice neat finish.
