My bike needs a repaint.

My wife would say I have no taste, but I like this paint scheme.

The lazy option would be to paint it red again.

Black is an option I like.

Would a vertical tri-color work do you think?

Anyone artistic with an idea of what would look best on a paso?

Or should I just let a paint shop loose to do their most cteative work?

Raiscns - I'm with Higgy. It's your bike you pick the colour to please YOU. The rest of the world can think what it likes. Me? I'd always go back to whatever it left the factory wearing - with one exception. Having seen (in pictures only) a black 907 - I would now paint a 907 BLACK as the soul of Satan himself - because - damn - it just looks so good. Especially with big Agip stickers - it would look SO good.

A good Tri-colour paint job would look great. Personally I'd be very wary of letting a paint shop loose to do their worst AND have to pay them. No, no, no.

Bottom line - Your bike so please yourself. Anyone doesn't like it tell them to buy their own and paint that!

If I were to have any color job and I wasn't doing a resto then it would be BLACK like the 907. That bike looks soooo good in person.....

My 907 is great in red - great - but . . .

I'm jealous !

I actually like that tri-color scheme and have thought about painting the Mega-Paso something similar......if I can ever get back around to working on the beast.
