Custom paint color choices

[Ford68xl]

Red is very cool and a great second choice, but I couldn't help going with the flat black. The best low maintenance color available and looks cool at the same time. I am surprised that all of you that are so adverse to washing your bike wouldn't jump all over having a finish like this.

Flat Black.

Okay, now yer jes bein' a *******.

****.....I shouldn't have said *******.....Bust'll be here any second!

At least my valves aren't bent.

At least my valves aren't bent.

I can fix my valves....

But you'll always..............nevermind. :devil:

I vote for red, but in THIS particular shade:

 

[FJRONAMISSION]

Hoochi Pink with black trim...... stand out in a crowd...... ;>

 

[Nels Erickson]

Gonna have to go with Flat Black. A stealth FJR sounds pretty cool.

Red just means you're having your mid-life crisis.

 

[RadioHowie]

Red just means you're having your mid-life crisis.

Then how do you explain that most of us already HAD our mid-life crisis YEARS ago! :lol2:

be different.

Be a Trailblazer. :clapping:

The red votes are overwhelming the others. Very good points and a very cool color. And visually conspicuous, at least in the daytime.

flat black. The best low maintenance color ...

Originally flat black was my choice, for these reasons. But, I'll have to go with the voice of the people:

RED it is. I painted this a few years back and was very pleased with how it turned out.

Red just means you're having your mid-life crisis.

I AM having a mid-life crisis, and I'm not afraid to admit it.

Pictures expected after completion.

Definitely. I'm not starting 'til it gets cold and wet (the weather).

I'm no painter....no experience other than painting my own house and that's entirely different than painting vehicles....but isn't painting in cold, damp conditions a "Bad Thing"?

This is how I'd like to do mine some day....but it's still basically new...

I want to maximize the season's riding time. I'll wait for a warm-ish day or heat up the garage.

The bike looks good. When even the red seems a little loud (for me), the yellow would be totally over the top.

 

[FJRGuy]

Didn't vote as there is nothing there that appeals to me... but if those are your only choices, I'd hav to say Red.

Small highjack... you know where I can get me one of these???

 

[BikerGeek99]

That red will look pretty sweet!

I've always thought that if I were to have my '04 painted, I'd go with that Atomic Orange Metallic that GM is putting on Corvettes. Me likey.

Hell - since you admit you're having your mid-life crisis, which is when most guys buy a Corvette, why not go with a Corvette color: Crystal Red Metallic?

Hmmm. Interesting. Why not a Corvette too?

How long is a mid-life crisis allowed to last?

Yeah we are still waiting for that to happen. :tease:

 

[rogdeb]

Just HAS to be RED !!

 

[1wheel peel]

..RED it is...

I like the red

...but this would be SWEET

 

[FJRMGM]

RED for me.

 

[JT 384]

Red all the way!

 

[MCML]

I've been wondering when the Rogdeb bike would show up here. Although, I've always wanted to see one in British Racing Green.
