I like #1 followed closely by #5 but how about black with a silver frame? That would look really cool!

#1 followed very closely by the British racing green with gold strips and black frame. It is hard to beat black though. Will it be a mate black, flat or gloss. The pic looks like mate black and I think it looks great.

Ewwww...the maroon/tan looks good...can you do it again with a black frame?

Have to admit I'm still leaning with exactly what Kawtoy described...BRG with gold and everything else black.

Anyway you go your solid bro! The bike just looks good. I like the black too but the maroon and tan colors are pretty tight too!

There ya go badkaw:


You see, i designed the bike for a two tone colour. Something that the seat flows into the tail light housng and tank stretch. Look at the marron and tan frame setup, see gow the lines just flow, the seat pan curves around frame and flows directly into the light housing and tank.
With a black frame it doesn't really work in my eye unless the tinz are black too or a lighter colour, but then i'd like the seat to go with the tinz to keep the lines....
Thanks for the ideas guys, keep em coming....not an easy call

the seat pan hasn't got foam yet and is a tad hard to see cos it's so fitted to frame but i think u see wot i mean...


Oh and i still have to decide on the colour mesh thats gonna be under the seatpan to contrast the ribs of the frame under seat....then i'll prolly match the fenders and bellypan mesh with that.

Nice lookin bike! When I look at it, I see a hornet. Therefore, being the old Bruce Lee fan that I am, I'd say paint it bright metal flake green and call it the Green Hornet. img62.exs.cx/img62/5729/hornetpaper.jpg

he he he thanks man. I'm glad u said that, it's been built with a kind of wasp dragon kind of theme. The bit of frame protruding thru tank to fork mount is gonna gave some crome "spine" dissipating into tank like its stretching skin.
So i coud go the greens and grasshopper route or redgoldcopper dragon hornet wasp route....
