 All those traditional colors are for wussies.Here is my paint job 2.1

http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj131/tomekd65/IMG_0866.jpg

The only negative part is that "sorry officer it was not my bike " does not work very well,,,,,,,,, Headscratch




Oh yeah! Thumbsup

Yellow, with flamboyant multi color right behind it.  I have been messing with various rattle can colors, but the paint goes on track plastic, and any bike with track plastic and drilled bolts has zero resale value anyway.

Kawasaki lime green and Triumph Rouilett Green have grown on me. Especially for sportbikes. There's a 2008 new style Ninja 250 that a girl at my local Cycle Gear rides and it's a great looking bike, minimal graphics, just green and black Thumbsup

Otherwise, can't go wrong with yellow --> Smile

While I really, really love the color of my present bike (Sunset Red), I really also loved the color I had on my 03 ZX12R.  It looked like a dark purple and was called Cosmic Splendor Red but it really looked almost black until you got it in the sun.

I love bikes in BRG, even non English ones. It's about the only color that will make me go "Ohhhhhh, nice!"

I also like bikes in color schemes that are historically associated with the company:  

a Kawasaki in lime green? A Honda in red, white and blue?  Thumbsup

Black is very good for making a bike look more of a piece.

Silver blends into pavement and concrete too much for my liking, but looks good on angular bikes.

Red, blue and yellow are pretty "meh" to me.
