ST '1991 restyling

Even more blue and yellow than my ST1100s were.

Love your yellow spoiler on the top box!
 
Would have looked better if the front fender was yellow.

What's with the matt/flat finish on the paint now-a-days?
 
I thought the same about the yellow fender/mudguard.

As for the finish, I suspected it wasn't paint but vinyl wrap... but it turned out I was wrong! :doh1:

Tnx for your interest!
Really isn't linked in any way with Ukraine, the first idea instead of the blue it's more like green/grey.. but finally that!
It's painted with non reflective colour, Renault type..
For the mudguard, I thought about it for a long time but decided on the completely blue front
 
I really like the clear turn signal lenses. They'll look great as running lights. You do have switchback turn signal bulbs installed?

That's a preference I don't get. I first saw it years ago on bike helmets and on 'resto' projects that didn't get completed so just paint the whole vehicle in primer.

But flat colors and black in particular seem to becoming more and more popular. One guy told me it's stealth paint and he can't be picked up on LIDAR. :rofl1:

As an accent I can see were matte/flat might enhance a paint job's aesthetic but a whole vehicle would never be my preference. But it is a preference and I respect that.

Yeah, with orange bulbs, as legal requirement.
For daily lights I thinking to a led row inside or I leave the standard bulbs connected with position lights

Search for switchbacks...
But keep in mind that, thanx to zealous EC directives, the annual MOT/technical inspection might give your grieve over things like running lights...
