often thought of the red front frame style...MV and the Ducati...nice red tone to the Ducati as well Nob..
ive thought the red would start on the bar at the rear suspension frame..that straight run up to the steering head and the frame work foreward...gives a nice shape to the eye catching red....wouldnt go tooooooo bright tho, wouldnt want overkill..
And a gun metal dark grey metallic [ tdm 900 ]..motor...that and the yzf gear....[ cant find a drool smiley ] :wink:

maybe a single sided swing arm...? 8)

Often thought about painting just the top frame rail in a colour only.
Like black bike and engine, red top frame rail from head to swinger, rest of frame black, red wheels maybe?

Originally I was going to do mine with Bright red frame, and full satin black bodywork...that current effect that looks like its covered in a layer od protective grease.
couple of tiny red highlights and some uber clean scotchbrighted alloy highlights on a gloss black motor

As a general rule of thumb i'd say black wheels look good on anything, white wheels look pants on everything. Black, silver or gunmetal frames allow you to change bodywork colours & still look good having said that a satin black frame with the front spars highlighted in a different colour would look cool
