I like the white, but swmbo has thumbs down. I'm gonna try a couple of yellow images. Cheers. Thanks so far for all the comments, all welcome.

You need to soften those huge arches so bright colour above swage line and dark colour below - could be wrong............or right.........

jacko.mines getting done next friday and have gone for full white body, black wheels,cage,mirrors,screen,rear arch extensions etc! and may add martini decals at a later date.
out of the colours youve had id go white or yelllow but he said to me yellow will fade badly!

unijacko67 - 11/4/13 at 07:48 PM

Dan your gonna have to shape yourself with the petrol filler cap or is it done.

Still not sure about colour as those images like the British Racing Green one would look tons better in reality, but still like the light green and white.

Personally think you should go for the Jaegermeister colourscheme and BBS Gold/Silver alloys as per the Alfa GTa 1300's.......

.....just remember it can't be just orange.... it must be ORANGE!!!

Not to nit pick but wasn't yellow with black decals Yamahas' factory colourscheme the days of 500cc bikes and Kenny Roberts....?

i can cut the filler cap in any time. hole saw in reverse is key to this i find! but i might buy one anyway

Yes swmbo likes this colour scheme, but will take a lot more time and effort also will cost a bit more, but on the plus side my Mrs says it will look the dogs bollocks, her exact words.

The Orange for me, reminds me of the old Bond Bug.

unijacko67 - 12/4/13 at 10:04 AM

The yellow/orange was a colour I used to paint my rally cars and is still an option. I also like the idea of stripes of some type.

I went for green in the end and very happy.

theduck - 20/4/13 at 07:47 AM

Looks awesome!

Proby - 20/4/13 at 09:59 AM

Loving the green. Looks Fab!

unijacko67 - 20/4/13 at 12:13 PM

It looks good in the daylight, think a black coachline with the black wheels and grill will work well. Just need to finish chassis then strip it all down to get that painted. Cheers.
