Now, i was at UWE frenchay campus about a week ago, if Hu reads this thread, yes i a dirty student again. And i saw this parked outside, now i think it does look nice but i just think the tango attack is horrible, am i the only one who thinks orange on bikes is bad?

Orange isn't my thing but it has a lot of added toys on it, it's had a lot of cash thrown at it and the result is rather good if you like orange.

Edit: I voted yes but I'd like to caveat that by saying normally I'm not a big fan of orange but the bike does have a lot going for it, I'd buy it and ride it but just not in orange tango leathers, that'd be a touch to far tbh

I like kwak oranage. I would have evey bike that colour if i could. Kid on hear with a custom paint job in oranage looks awsome.

Now I might be wrong but that looks like the Standard Suzuki Copper colour that the K3's came in.

It is indeed metallic burning copper - available on the K3 only. The screen is quite common on the copper bikes, but I think a black one looks best for contrast. The light covers and forks are just horrid.

My old SV was Burnt Copper with black lowers and black paintwork from the join between the lowers and the top fairing used as a line backwards.
I just couldn't get a Duracell Bunny sticker for the lowers-----it didn't go any faster just longer

As a point of interest when I bought it new it was £600 cheaper than a silver one that I was originally going to buy,so being a tight Scotsman,sod the colour feel the price.-------Paint is cheap

Oh look a ginger bike!

Was it parked all on its own?
