Posted September 25, 200915 yr Things are moving swimmingly along and I am now pondering on what color to repaint 'er... Just the tank and side covers, I think chrome fenders or alloy (or stainless) really set a vintage Japbike off. One choice (my favorite) is the Goodwood Green and Aztec Gold scheme from the 2004 Bonneville seen here: http://www.mcnews.com.au/Wallpaper/Triumph/Bonneville/2004/Bonneville_Green_RHF_1024.jpg Other thoughts: Hunter Green Not sure what the color is called, but I just got a set of matching side covers off of a 79 XS400F (I believe, just has the "xs400" insignia without 'special' or 'heritage' or anything like that) and they are a deep metallic blue that looks almost black from a distance Some sort of metallic black with gold trim Opinions? Other suggestions? If you have anything, post a pic with it.
