Default Color choices?

So i'm thinking of painting my bike. I'm not sure if I should or not, but I'm thinking all white w/ either a clear screen (instead of blue), or smoked, and do a yellow lamin-x headlight cover.

or keep it.

also, where is the cheapest place to buy REAL OEM fork seals?

I don't know man, I'm digging the blue with white stripes. I think it looks nice the way it is.

I have to agree with the others, it looks pretty good as it is. The only thing I would change would be to paint the whole mirror assembly blue.

here's my take on a white bike...

mine is silver over alot of white. looks nice, real bright when clean but a real pain in the *** to keep clean. rims are the worst in the corners where dirt builds up. at least with blue like yours, it can hide dirt and stains a lot better, especially the plastics just behind the front tire. that place just attracts road grime. then there is the matter of the paint getting chipped and what not. that kind of stuff shows up on white really easily.

white is nice, but think of the downside.

Leave that sexy beast alone, except maybe the mirror stalks, all blue would be better.
