Title: Need Suggestions
Post by: LakeMaryKid on September 20, 2005, 09:55:09 PM
Ok, Well im gonna be doing a "rebuild" to my bike soon. I will be swapping frames and PCing the new frame. I am at a loss of what color to choose to do the frames. I will have the red plastics for sometime now and i now have a black seat. Yay no more duct tape.(Thanks HOLLYWOOD) What color would you suggest and why? I will be painting the a-arms to correspond with the frame's color also, so thats no worry. Please post what you voted for and why.

Color of motomike's frame.

If you dont like the polls selection add the color you think

Also this will be on a 400ex. Here is a picture of how it sits somewhat.(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v640/lakemarykid/scan0001.jpg)

I like Mikes blue, but it looks like the Z400 frames color. I think the silver would just look like a stock frame,Black looks good, and red would look good I think. Mabye Red frame Black Arms(or other way around)? And the black 400ex plastic looks good on them.

How about a darker version of Mike's Blue? Like base it in a darker color. A "Deep" translusent Blue instead of "bright". It would look neat against the red plastics.

Well, the swingarm is done prism black already and the a arms can not be powder coated which sucks. I think i like Mrs. Nightbreed's ideer.

Why can't the a-arms be powdercoated?

Kid- You know I like the Black frame, it stays looking good no matter how long it's there and it's easy to touch up with a can on black paint. But that Blue does look good! I also like the Candy Burgandy that Mike has done on a couple. When mine comes down to be redone I am pretty sure that is what we'll go with.
