Smile Getting my bike painted at the local Ford dealership

My '05 Mustang was recently at the local Ford dealership getting the passenger door touched up and they had some left over Torch Red paint so I asked if they couold paint my bike the same color with the extra paint they had. So now my '93 900 will be Torch Red as well.
Can't wait to take it for a spin. I wonder how it would look if I added the dual white rally stripes to the bike to match my Stang even more..Hmmmm...

Hey, that's a great idea. How much are they charging for that?

The total for painting the panels is $420. and that includes painting a bunch of engine pieces for my Mustang as well.
Here are a few pics of how the re-assembly with new painted pieces is coming along...
Before - with it's then dark green paint:

Lookin great man.

The gray in the first couple pics looks a lot like my carbon gray Mustang. When you mentioned the dealership was painting them for you, I started thinking you might be onto something with having your bike match your car
