Best Honda paint schemes?

[AceOfHearts]

So with some paint projects coming up in the future I'm curious to know what all your favourite Honda (or at least Honda friendly) paint schemes are?

I know Rothmans is popular and is one of my favourites but I can't help but think it's been a bit overdone?

Here's a few of my favourites to get started but I am sure there are plenty I'm unaware of...

Please, not a brown and gold Fireblade.

My mate had a Smokin Joes NC30 that was pretty cool!

Rumi RC30

Cabin RC30 / VTR SP1

Camel MotoGP wotsit.

Feel free to post up the photos, I struggle with t’internet.

If you’re thinking about painting one of your CBR250RRRRR’s then you could be predictable and just buy a prepainted Repsol Chinese bodykit for less than doing a paint job in this country.

I always liked this one

I will check them out, but am actually looking for the track bike (CBR400) and I'm also on the market for an NSR as I fancy a 2 stroke to add to the stable. As it happens the one I'm interested in the minute needs paint.

OP - Google Fred Merkel RC30. One of the simplest but effective schemes every, also helped Fred could ride the thing!

Candy Glory Red CBX, just gorgeous.



HRC colours on the CB1300F-SP



The Torbay Hotrod, A very heavily modified CB900F in Stock 1980 Colours with almost 200bhp

Why the hate for the, I assume, urban tiger?

How about a McGuiness tribute HM Plant rep?

I’ve always been a massive fan of Rossi’s 2001 RC211V MotoGP testing bike livery. Pure class...

[NS400R]

HRC colours for me

[A500leroy]

This has to be the one?

Which IIRC was first used on the 2000 Le Mans 24hr winning VTR SP1. Where Honda turned up with a brand new bike and won. I can't remember if they bothered returning in 2001.

This you mean. Best ever. I had one, a 900RR-S Foxeye, 1994.

WRT the urban tiger blade: it shouldn't work on paper but in the flesh it does somehow.

The CB900 race reps were my first thought.

[shurm]

Always loved this

Of the paint schemes and not branded sponsorship I’m a fan of the urban tiger too. Looked great on the 2014 blades too.

Cool name to - what colour is your bike? Urban tiger. Beats red or green any day.
