Hello i'm thinking about doing a colour change on my 230 so i thought i would ask you lot what would be a better colour then stupid honda red. I don't like the look of black either because everybody has done it so what do you reckon?

gold with white ghost flames or the other way around should look good either way

How about some graphix? You could have the entire bike in 1 colour with black graphix.

And I'll post later (when I get home prolly) - but I think that I can do you a great Jetfighter look - kinda a Top Gun thing! :wavey:

Actually the bike is really set for straight lines on the paint job.... Will post later.

Did anybody see the 4 guys with fur covered DRZ125's at the Cold Kiwi? - they had an elephant, a leopard, a zebra & something else. Looked bloody hilarious.

Orange is of course the coolest colour though. :yes: But seriously, things are pretty limited with dirtbikes, plastics only come in so many colours, and stickers can only do so much. Getting some stick-on vinyl from a signwriter and making up your own graphics can work well if yer a bit arty.

Cheers

then again, painting it orange might make people think it's a KTM or something.. not that it's bad, and if that's what you're going for, then fine.. My orange isn't quite a KTM type orange, but a metallicy sort of orange, else I wouldn't have got it.. awesome in the sun. K, I'm done now..
