Beautiful machine! I like the blue. going for mainly white and a dark teal on mine when it's done. Pricing paint and supplies now to get a heads up on what mine will cost overall. *Still convincing the future wife that repainting the bike is a good thing*

I was thinking Stock Granite Blue/Monza Red...

...considering other now!

I debated a solid Jet Black, but a Midnight Blue would look great!

Nice bike !

I vote for stock colors ( I wonder why)

Love how that blue looks in the sun.

I recently had to bondo a patch on my bike and I repainted with the autozone paint (dont remember what it was but said it was for plastics). Looks good except for its not clear coated so it doesnt have the gloss to it. I went real light coats and it took a shyt ton to cover the bondo. Found if you go thick light thick light coat it gives a good result covering up espcially with light paint on dark putty.
