    8O Ok i'm thinking about painting (this winter) my frame red and black body work, has any one done this? Just wondering what it looks like, or any other frame colors with black body work. I would love to do all black but may be to boring, because im not really into putting on graphics(but looks good though).

    Thanks. Here's an idea if you're proficient with photoshop. grab one of the shots of my bike from my gallery, open it in photoshop and change all the yellows to red. I've done it several times, including silver when I was thinking of grinding my frame to bare metal and clearcoating it.

    I've noticed when the frame is painted, it makes the bike look so much cleaner. Mine is the stock black and a bitch to keep clean (when I clean it) and I think a fresh coat of another color would really help it look better.
    You'll have to post photos when you get it done. >PD<

    Don't forget "Red Rims" too!! That'd look sharp... Red frame & Rims, flat black body with red / yellow & blue hand painted pin stripe design!!


    EDIT: Similar to PainterD's.... take a look: http://xjbikes.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=3983.html

    Yea Im thinkin paint the part of my rims where it's polished red, and flat or shiny black. With gloss blood red frame. But now I need a motor to get her back goin. So paint has to wait.
