now, the question is though, which looks better though.
tough call. one looks natural, and one looks sort of cool.

your best bet is to get the whole bike painted again, in a nice matt black colour, ceramic coat black the headers and everything in sight, then gold braided brake lines, gold wheels, and a couple of other gold odds and ends. No more than a couple though.

And then gleaming gold SUZUKI on the tank.

Jesus. if you had those gold gixxer forks on the bike, with those wheels, and everything blacked out, i think i would be having a funny feeling in my tummy right now.


Hmmmm. Gold and black.... mmmmmm.
Dont encourage Northwind, Move away from the thread

You're right though, Gold and Black looks best. But Northwinds already done that.
