    I wanna try black

    Got to thinking whilst on holiday (the beach air has that effect on my) about changing the colour of my CB.
    I want it to be Black, not just any black, but black pearl or something to camp it up nicely in the good ole Honda fashion.

    I want all the blue to be the new chosen black, with the Honda wing on the tank to be Gold (to match the rims)

    Is there any skillfull photoshop people about who can fanny about with a pic of said bike?
    I have asked Romeo (who done a wonderful job on my Triumph a few years back) but I dont know how often he is online.

    Pink would suit ya Maha....

    The Homoda would look good in Black...lots cheaper than getting a new bike as well.

    here you go mark, i probably mixed to much pink in the black but it will give you an idea.

    i also used spray cans and crayons to replicate a home DIY job, to show people that not only can paint jobs be cool, they can be cheap too.

    My thoughts also....I first saw a Black CB which (at the time) was the one I wanted.
