Different Make, What Color?

Hey guys and Gals, My new project is a 1979 GL1000 Goldwing.I know it no Kawasaki by any means. I am sorry to even mention another Brand on here. I LOVE MY KAWASAKI. But why not make the mistakes on a Honda.:laugh: Any way back to the (other)brand. I would like to have input of what color YOU would paint it. The OEM color is in bad shape and I thought I would change the color, but to What?:unsure: .:dry: I might try to make it look like a Kawasaki just so I dont get laughed at.:laugh: .:dry: Any Ideas I wouldn't do anything to ruin the Kawasaki Pride we all have.
