I'm trying to decide what color paint to buy for my bike. I am thinking either red to match my SRT, jet black, dark grey, or electronic blue. Any opinions? http://www.bikez.com/bike/4275/index2.jpg

Its gonna take a ton of work to make any solid color other than black or white look good. You are gonna need a real nice clear or pearl coat to cover some of those colors like blue or red!

I now have one extra gallon of WWII olive drab since Dexter won't be using it.

i like the blue, my friend brian from cinnaminson had a ZX-9 that he painted it all blue, similar to the e-blue. The bike cvame out lookin really nice, especially with the custom rims and all the chrome parts

I have a few one-off custom paints laying around that want a home.

dark grey definitely...or white....dude get the paint code off of an EVO MR....that would look really nice...BUT, then ya have to get some flush mount clear turn signals and do away with the orange cause that will stick out like a sore thumb

I was thinking about flat blacking it seeing as it's my first bike and there's a fair chance it will get crunchy. I'm liking the blue though. Hystericfox what color paints?

I'll see if I can take some pics today. There's about 6 of them.
