Whatever color you paint it, you should use a pearlescent type paint. That way, the paint will have some depth and change slighty in the sun or shade. Just a couple of my pennies on that.

But, my recommendation is find a paint you absolutely love on a car, find that cars paint code, and then paint it that color. That's what I did with my car. I loved the Blue on the SRT-4's, so that's what I painted my car.

But on a bike, I have a love of red. It stands out the most (so I can be seen), and just looks like it's going 150mph sitting there in the garage. I just wish the factory "Italian red" on the Honda's were pearled a bit, that would look sick.

Good luck. The hardest part of me painting my car was the color choice.

Ohh, do the adonized-like paint. I believe that Kawasaki has a flat blue color on one of their bikes. It looks freaking awesome. Don't know that type of paint or finishing process they use, but it does look freaking sweet.
