Cost me 20 quid including the filler for the knackered tank. Bargain.

I'm thinking green at the moment, but then I've always rather liked green.

I'm still thinking white with black accents i.e. between the headlights, suzuki writing, maybe front mud guard and rear panel behind the pillion seat (and maybe black wheels?). Lots of saving to do first though

I'm very happy with the yellow. I'd respray it, though, as it's a little tatty and a black stripe would be nice.

Ahhh, now I would really like to respray my Mountain Bike and my SV to match. I have thought about a girly pink,



but quickly went off of that idea.

However since I saw Carol's GTR1000 I really liked the idea of blood red metallic paint.



I checked out Argos Cycles for doing my Mountain Bike, it needs a lot of care when doing it because it is a super expensive Aluminium one I bought about four years ago.

I also use Hyperbolt for anodised fittings for my Mountain bike, but have not yet had the spare cash for starting work on Silvie.

I love my bikes, but no as much as I love my Girlfriend... Do you think I can get her colour matched to the bikes too? Hmm..... Gloss Red PVC.....

Kwak Green or as Wideboy, Kwak Orange. However I think JHS did a SV1000 so called fighter, I really liked the glittery green paintjob on that.
