IMO, some copper thrown in would be a great accent with the blue, especially with the current body scheme. I would say gold, but I think people tend to overdo gold.

I think blue would like real good with your new paint job. Maybe even anodize your swingarm too.

Well since you painted your bike to match your leathers & helmet you could get some blue riding shoe, gloves and a blue tinted screen for your helmet!!!!

You know to be honest with you I didnt even think about the colors of my helmet or gear. I just couldnt come up with somthing I really liked that someone didnt already have . SO I guess I have dared to be different

Re: New GRC paint job need some opinions

Hey standardracer, are you doing your own anodizing, or having it done? I was wondering if there was a limit to your color scheme...

Re: New GRC paint job need some opinions

Im going to have it done here locally the guy does custom choppers and he will do my parts cheap like all of them for less than $100 kinda cheap and he will polish all of it before it gets anodized

Oh and no limits heres either
