Between 10 and 12 for me.
Thanks, Uncle Phil! I'm floating in that area, too, but closer to 9 and 10. I think 11 and 12 aren't quite balanced.
You asked, so... leave it black and spend your money on useful farkles.
Sorry, not a big fan of custom paint jobs like that, unless it's just to change the overall color.
I (currently) have all the farkles I need. GPS with a bluetooth connection to my helmet headset and heated gear are perfectly adequate. The only other immediate consideration will be a Corbin seat. I don't think I could ride with a shelf full of gadgets.
Do you have a picture of the paint job as it exists now? I’m also a fan of a one color bike. One other option if you choose is to use colored vinyl to cover what you need and that way, it’s not permanent.
Yes what color is it now? There is a wrap paint that can be removed that I have seen on a few car. It looks pretty good. If you do not like it you can peel it off and start over without damage to the paint under it. No.1 on the choices above if those where my only choices.
This is what it currently looks like.
The wrap idea is a consideration, but I have a couple of friends that do paint, so getting it done won't be too much of an issue. Especially since I can Photoshop it to look however I like, first.
You want a bike that people ooooh and awwwwwww over? Paint it red, Pure Pearl Red, same as on the '95 thru '97 models.
I'm not interested in being gawked at or feel that I have "the fastest color" or the "Blingiest" paint job. I just like to make my bikes unique in their appearance. That way I'll never get on the wrong one! lol
color combo does not knock me out but sometimes it looks better in person.. Do not like the abrupt stop of the tank lines at the side cover. I think they should flow up to the seat line or peak into the side cover. I think it needs an accent on the fairing. I love two tones but cant see any way to do it on the st, Foose could do it!
Thanks, Al st1100. I agree that it is a difficult subject to two-tone, which is why I posted the poll. It is a work in progress.
Thanks for your input, guys. I'm going to probably post a second poll as I whittle it down. I'll also add to this when I finish Photoshopping some ideas I had for the front upper.
