Best Honda paint schemes?

[Fastdruid]

RWB as raced by Merkel, Bubba etc.

Tragically we didn't get these colours over here on the road bikes, only the US got them (presumably because of the success of the VFR750F in AMA).

I think most here are a bit overdone apart from the purple RC30 above.

How about one of the endurance liveries? Either old or new?

Not sure how this would look on an older bike but could be some inspiration;

This has to be the one?

IMO the previous repsol was nicer. More black. Less white.

My NC30 was in a grey/white/black colour scheme which I think was from the SP2. Looked great, there are some pictures online but I can't link to them for some reason.

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.

Mine's black but that's not important right now.

Always liked the simple Wilson Craig livery.

I'm bias as it was mine but I bloody love this scheme on the fireblade and it's not a common one either.
It screams 90s!

Benneton CBR 600 FM was always one of my favourites, random picture from the internet....

Castrol

Obviously biased because I had one but always felt there was something 'just right' about the 2009 Fireblade HRC colours:

Not sure about "best", but I do like this one. Nice balance for me.

I've never been a big fan of "Spanish Petrol station" colours.

Quite like the colour scheme on that HRC colours on the CB1300F-SP.
It does depend on what bike though plus I'm a bit of a fan of some of the HRC colours "biased" :-)

[AceOfHearts]

For context it is for my CBR400RR Track bike.

Currently it is 'bright' although it is growing on me strangely

I have a new tail unit to fit next year hence paintwork on the agenda



Currently I am thinking of just painting it all white and then adding a Castrol decal set...

[Jag_NE]

It’s pretty basic but I really like the current model in matt black with the red stickers.

Call me crazy but I used to love the 80s candy colours, whether a metallic red GL1000, CX500 or CBX.

As the owner of a naked candy red GL1000, I often lusted after this as well as the candy dark brown version:



Shame they just don't seem to offer this type of paint anymore.

Lime Green - Honda aren't nearly so brightly coloured these days... Sad times - !



But also the Tricolour as seen on the 6th gen VFR - !



And lastly - the SP Castrol colours - !

It's RWB you heathen!

Plus I'd already posted that one (and IMO the older bikes looked better with it)
