Sorted!

I'd have to say that last one, with the black front.

black front and rear... (just because it'll mean less cleaning ;) )

Jetski

Pffff... But I think black takes something away from it... too standard, if you know what I mean.

I like the pink and orange, but perhaps the other way round, more in line with the stickers?

I considered polished rims, but decided it would be too hard work. The other option is silver??? I suggested chrome, but Shifty says that'd be too bling - good point :D :D :D

Can I have some laydeez opinions too!? :D

new one added ;)

WoooHOOO!! :D It's getting there huh!? :)

So far, I'm deff liking the last one, pink front, orange (but toned down from current orange) rear.

Otherwise, I'll go for silver, depending on if it can be done in powder coat and of course what it looks like :)

Either way, Doodlebug suggested leaving just the rims polished, that way they don't get wrecked when the tyres are changed - top idea :)

I've got a new dark tint double bubble on order to replace the light smoke standard. It is truly a female looking bike. But I loves it :)

Still think Pink 'n' Orange or Orange 'n' Pink, and also with a small pin stripe around the edge of the rim in 'Pink' on the Orange and 'Orange' on the Pink......................YEAH...:clap :clap

Not sure powdercoating would take that kind of masking?

I have discovered another option :D

This is a black gloss powder coat, fading to Chromax (used to be called reflectra, but this is the new name - it's a chrome style finish, but via powdercoat and varnish, which means you only have to 'wash and go' - no polishing required!) :D

They do orange fading to chromax too :)

What d'ya reckon???

I have to say, Pink at the back and Orange at the front does look brilliant. Why have em looking like stock or just plain boring! Make your mark on the bike!

Jetski
12-04-2006, 08:34 AM
Could do.....

This is the orange (see above for black/chrome :) )

I take it from those responses, you don't think too much of the colour/chromax??? :D

They probably can do pink :D

Not saying they aint nice. Just I think keeping with the colour of the bike looks the nuts. The powdercoated wheels look the best!

Get them done in Lime Green, that'll throw everyone.

I could still get the Pink and Orange front and back... but fading to silver... :D The frame is polished, so it would probably match quite well...

I don't want it to look totally gay though.... ??

Then that will probally look the nuts. :grin2 Won't really know till you put em on the bike :(

i like the fading into chromax. i dont like pink wheels personally, but it would match your bike. and if you like it then thats what you should do.

Hmmmm... might have a point there though... the two words together... 'pink wheels' just all sounds a bit too much... :D

Orange fading to chromax is looking good :D
