If you could choose any colour of bike what would it be?

[RemaL]

Yes i know "Ask a 1000 people and they will give me a 1000 different replies. But i'm going to ask anywho

The Ariel Ace is still very much in my mind.
And 1 thing that the guys at the factory said that really made me think and really got me stumped.

I asked what colour can I have the bike. The reply was give us a paint code and you can have it that colour. So pretty much the choice is endless

I've loved orange since I had my Blazing Orange Speed triple. Why I like my repsol Blade. But will it be to much. If no what shade orange . Rambo orange is nice and bright?

I don't like plain colours such as White, Black or silver and like to have a bike you can see.

So really just asking what do you think would be a nice colour on the bike below. Just give's me ideas on what to look at .



So not much to cover just the tank, tail and belly pan and possibly the front and rear hugger

Can you get a finished metal "finish" as opposed to paint matt?

[Ilovejapcrap]

Bmw Valencia orange

Vag Java green

Couple of ideas

[Chipchap]

McLaren orange

[Otter Smacker]

Have a soft spot for that baby blue as seen on the S1000RR

I'm sorry but I don't really understand why you are asking what would others choose for themselves . Surely you know what colours you like and will have a leaning towards what will / would suit your chosen bike best . Make your choice , have it painted , ride it and enjoy it ...
I wouldn't give a toss what anybody else thought about it .
Not having a pop just confused .
Good luck .

Ferrari Grigio Titanio or this grey:

Mclaren Volcano red or Nissan Midnight Purple would be my choices, I think I'd probably go for midnight purple.

Excuse the st skills. Tried repsol orange but it was awkward against the ohlins gold.

So thought why not have the bike olins gold, also colour coded the rear hugger/mudguard as it looked a bit cheap left black.

Some bright orange or what about Renault Clio's liquid yellow?

Proviso: if it was me and I was going for one of the above, I'd have the forks dark anodised and the frame in some sort of dark grey too just to make that colour pop wven more.

Might as well when paying £20k+

Metallic purple! Not the best photo, it looks a lot better when in sunlight. Would go nicely with the silver frame of the Ariel too.



Or I reckon British Racing Green would look fantastic on it

I think EvilLen has the answer:

everyone knows red's the fastest colour
Just ordered a Red Africa twin to go with it too

I think the centre piece of the bike s the trellis frame so I'd keep the colour simples. The red looks good

I said white first off because of the engineering. I think a colour would detract from tframe.

The fireblade diamond white might look pretty cool but I think a darker colour to highlight the light frame

PS - it's in need of your photoshop skills

I really like yellow motorbikes. My Daytona T595 is Strontium yellow, which is a sort of dark metallic yellow, slightly more to my taste than say, the flat yellow that came on the Speed Four and the Daytona 600. It was the dramatic colour that first drew me to the Daytona.

Jaguar used to do a colour that looked black in low light but was a really dark red in sunlight, I can't find the name of it though. It looked similar to triumphs red haze on the rocket 3.

I'd go for something dark and relatively subtle as it won't need laity paint with a frame like that.

My favourite colour from a bike I've owned was Triumph roulette green on my speed triple, but I think that would be overkill here.

Carbon?

Fluoro Green?
