Default Opinions required please

Guys,

I'm about to order some braided lines for my cane and am after some

opinions on hose colour and banjo colour. I want to get gold fittings to

bring out the gold thats part of the colour scheme. ( white, blue fairings

with red and gold stripes ). Its like the Rothmans colours of that era. If

you guys could give me some opinions on what hose colour would look

best Id appreciate it.

Think we need a pic of her to really get a true idea ...
Yep, that would be cool.
I don't think gold would be bad if you could match it perfectly with the bike, but if you don't think you really can, you might want to pic silver/ss to match the lines or maybe just black to match the calipers, etc.

Guys,
See below for the photo. I'm thinkin bout silver lines with gold banjos. I

ordered red rim stickers today to go on the white wheels. Hoping it will

look very trick. Cant wait to show her off at the Moto GP this year.

Anyway let me know what you think. Cheers

I'd be tempted to go with blue or red lines with gold fitments
