paint code wanted for '07 red Breva 1100

[Suncoast]

I'm about to pick up my new to me '07 Breva 1100!!! It has the Norge bags but they are silver. My plan is to have a local body shop paint em red to match the factory red of the bike, does anyone have the code for the paint? Or does anyone have a set of red bags they want to trade for silver ones??

If you can, take a pic of your bike and PhotoShop the bags black.  I've got a red 1200 Sport with the black bags and actually prefer the look (had my choice when I bought the bike and Dave at MI helped me make the decision).  Just my opinion, but the red bags was just too much red and to my eye, the black flows with the bikes lines nicely.

Good luck on whatever you decide!

Hmm, I ve never thought of black, can you post a pic of yours with the black bags?

Don't have a picture of my bike with the bags at home (techno limited here!).  All on my PC at work.  

I'll post one Monday morning.

Go to my images to see the pics.  I've posted pics here before but now they are either too big, I leave out a description... and I keep getting error messages    I think I need a 12 year old kid to show me how to work this interweb thing!!!

  Thanks a lot, I think you're right the Black bags look really nice, probably easier to paint black bags rather than color match the red.

Everyone has to figure out what they like best!    Good luck.

I may be repainting mine a more satin black to match the satin black bits on the bike.  The bags are the only gloss black on the bike and I have put some serious scratches on them.  Just kicking around what it would look like if they matched the look of the porkchops and other black trim.
